Dual diagnosis rehabs are centers which deliver rehab to deal with both addiction and mental health concerns at the same time. Dual diagnosis is an extremely prevalent circumstance for individuals involved in drug abuse, as individuals with mental health disorders often medicate themselves with drugs and alcohol to experience some sort of temporary respite from their disorder. Inside a dual diagnosis rehab, rehab counselors can help individuals through a comprehensive rehab plan all targeted at restoring and replenishing mental, emotional and physical health as well as addressing drug abuse problems. Offering a safe and secure environment is essential to ensure dual diagnosis clients can be relaxed and remain undistracted from circumstances that may compromise their treatment plan and advancement. Rehabilitation counselors will continue to work to recognize environmental factors in the client's life including negative relationships or any other things which must be addressed in order for the person to be mentally healthy and sober t once they depart dual diagnosis rehab. Dual diagnosis clients also benefit from behavioral rehabilitation which will help them develop more efficient coping mechanisms so they are better able to handle life circumstances better after they depart dual diagnosis rehab as opposed to turning to drugs and alcohol as an inferior answer.
