Dual diagnosis rehabs are facilities which deliver treatment to address both addiction and mental health issues at the same time. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent circumstance for individuals involved in drug abuse, as people with mental health disorders frequently medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some type of temporary respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors will help people using a thorough rehab plan all aimed at restoring and stabilizing mental, physical and emotional health whilst dealing with drug abuse issues. Providing a safe and secure environment is vital so that dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances that may compromise their program and development. Rehab counselors will work to identify environmental factors in the client's life such as negative relationships or any other things which have to be addressed in order for the individual to be mentally healthy and sober t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral treatment that helps them develop more effective coping methods so they are able to better deal with life situations well when they leave dual diagnosis rehab rather than returning to drugs and alcohol as a possible answer.
