LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can often feel alone, not understood, and seen as socially depraved. This is sometimes a very difficult or painful way to live, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of drug abuse to numb this pain. Someone who is LGBT might not feel relaxed inside a traditional treatment center amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same challenges they may be experiencing in their lives. A LGBT program offers an environment that's totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be totally comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and treatment counselors problems which need to be handled to enable them to get well. Rehabilitation counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients fix relationships with their family members, in the case their family disagree with their sexual choice as is often the case. This circumstance is an extremely common trigger for substance abuse, and it is a good example of an issue that can be handled in treatment. LGBT clients often only want to be accepted in their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and build confidence in order to lead a healthy life free from drugs and alcohol.
