LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are programs which address the unique needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can often feel alone, not understood, and considered socially depraved. This is often a quite challenging or painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a life of drug use to numb these feelings. Someone who is LGBT may not feel comfortable within a traditional rehabilitation program amongst people who aren't experiencing the same challenges they are experiencing within their lives. A LGBT program provides an environment that is totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehabilitation counselors issues which have to be resolved so that they can get better. Rehabilitation counselors within a LGBT rehab will help clients mend relationships with their loved ones, in the event that their family disagree with their sexual choice as is generally the case. This situation is an extremely frequent trigger for drug use, which is an illustration of something would be handled in treatment. LGBT clients often simply want to be accepted within their lives, and rehabilitation will help them accept themselves and create confidence to enable them to lead a healthy life free of alcohol and drugs.
