LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are centers which address the particular needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can often feel alone, not understood, and viewed as socially unwanted. This is often a very difficult and painful way to live, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of substance abuse to alleviate these feelings. Somebody who is LGBT might not feel at ease in a conventional rehab center amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same problems they are experiencing in their lives. A LGBT center provides an environment that is free from judgment, where LGBT clients can feel totally safe and comfortable revealing to their peers and rehab counselors problems which have to be handled to be able to recover. Treatment counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients mend relationships with their loved ones, in the case their loved ones disagree with their sexual choice as is often the case. This situation is an extremely frequent trigger for substance abuse, and is also an example of something which could be handled in rehab. LGBT clients often simply want to be accepted in their lives, and rehabilitation will help them accept themselves and produce confidence in order to lead a wholesome life free of drugs and alcohol.
