LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are programs which address the unique needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and seen as socially depraved. This may be a very difficult and painful way to live, and leads many LGBT individuals to a lifestyle of substance abuse to numb these feelings. Someone that is LGBT might not exactly feel safe inside a conventional treatment facility amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same problems they may be experiencing within their lives. A LGBT facility provides an environment which can be totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can feel totally comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehabilitation counselors issues which have to be handled to be able to get well. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab will help clients mend relationships with their family, in the case their family disagree with their sexual choice as is usually the case. This situation is an extremely frequent trigger for drug abuse, and it is an example of an issue that could be resolved in rehab. LGBT clients often only want to be accepted in their lives, and rehabilitation will help them accept themselves and build confidence to be able to lead a healthy life clear of drugs and alcohol.
