Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehabilitation to address both mental health and addiction concerns simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common situation for people involved in drug abuse, as people with mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of temporary respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment counselors can help individuals through a thorough rehabilitation plan all geared towards restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health while also dealing with substance abuse problems. Providing a safe setting is vital to ensure dual diagnosis clients can be at ease and remain undistracted from circumstances that could compromise their treatment plan and progress. Treatment counselors will work to identify environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or any other things which have to be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally healthy and sober t whenever they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which will help them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so they are able to better deal with life situations more effectively when they leave dual diagnosis rehab instead of turning to drugs as an inferior option.
