LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the particular needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can often feel alone, not understood, and viewed as socially unwanted. This may be a quite challenging and painful way to live, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of drug use to numb these feelings. Someone that is LGBT may not feel comfortable within a traditional rehab facility amongst people who aren't experiencing the same challenges they may be experiencing of their lives. A LGBT program offers an environment which can be free of judgment, where LGBT clients can feel completely safe and comfortable revealing to their peers and treatment counselors problems which have to be resolved to be able to get better. Rehab counselors within a LGBT rehab can help clients repair relationships with their family, in case their family disagree with their sexual preference as is often the case. This circumstance is an extremely common trigger for drug abuse, and is also an example of something which would be handled in rehab. LGBT clients often just want to be accepted within their lives, and treatment will help them accept themselves and build confidence to enable them to lead a wholesome life free from drugs and alcohol.
