Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver rehab to address both mental health and addiction issues simultaneously. Dual diagnosis is a very prevalent situation for people involved in drug and alcohol abuse, as people who have mental health disorders frequently self medicate with alcohol and drugs to experience some sort of short-term respite from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, treatment professionals will help people using a comprehensive treatment plan all geared towards restoring and replenishing mental, physical and emotional health as well as addressing alcohol and drug abuse concerns. Providing a safe and secure setting is essential to ensure dual diagnosis clients can be at ease and remain free from distraction from things that may cut across their treatment plan and development. Rehab counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental issues in the client's life such as negative relationships or any other things that must be addressed in order for the individual to stay mentally stable and abstinen t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehab which will help them develop more effective coping methods so that they are better able to handle life circumstances more effectively once they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior solution.
