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, misunderstood, and considered socially depraved. This is often an extremely tough or painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of substance abuse to numb these feelings. Someone that is LGBT might not feel safe in a traditional treatment facility amongst people who aren't experiencing the same problems they are experiencing in their lives. A LGBT facility provides an environment that is free from judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehabilitation counselors issues which must be handled to be able to get well. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab will help clients repair relationships with their loved ones, in the event their loved ones disagree with their sexual choice as is generally the case. This situation is definitely a frequent trigger for drug use, and is also an example of an issue that would be handled in rehab. LGBT clients often simply want to be accepted within their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and create confidence so that they can lead a healthy life without any alcohol and drugs.
