Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver treatment to handle both mental health and addiction issues concurrently. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent situation for those involved with drug and alcohol abuse, as people who have mental health disorders often medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some sort of temporary respite from their disorder. In a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals will help individuals using a detailed treatment plan all targeted at restoring and stabilizing mental, emotional and physical health as well as addressing alcohol and drug abuse problems. Offering a safe setting is key to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can be at ease and remain free from distraction from things which could cut across their program and progress. Rehab counselors will work to spot environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or any other things which need to be addressed in order for the individual to stay mentally stable and sober t when they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehabilitation which helps them develop far better coping mechanisms so that they are better able to handle life situations better when they leave dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to alcohol and drugs as an inferior solution.
