Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to identify environmental factors in the client's life including negative people in their lives or any other things that need to be addressed in order for the person to stay mentally stable and sober t after they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehab which helps them develop more efficient coping methods so they are better able to handle life circumstances well if they depart dual diagnosis rehab rather than turning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior option.
