Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which provide treatment to address both mental health and addiction concerns concurrently. Dual diagnosis is an extremely common situation for people involved with drug and alcohol abuse, as people who have mental health issues frequently medicate themselves with alcohol and drugs to experience some form of temporary relief from their disorder. Within a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab professionals will help individuals using a comprehensive rehab plan all directed at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health while addressing alcohol and drug abuse issues. Providing a safe and secure setting is vital to ensure that dual diagnosis clients can feel relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances which may compromise their treatment plan and development. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to identify environmental issues in the client's life including negative people in their lives or any other things which should be addressed in order for the person to be mentally healthy and abstinen t when they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also reap the benefits of behavioral rehabilitation that helps them develop far better coping methods so that they are able to better deal with life situations more proficiently once they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs and alcohol as a possible option.
