Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Dual Diagnosis Treatment at 28s Rehab in Burbank, California

At 28s Rehab, located in the heart of Burbank, California, we understand that mental health and addiction are deeply interconnected issues. This is why we offer specialized dual diagnosis treatment that caters to individuals facing the unique challenges of both substance use disorders and mental health conditions. Our comprehensive approach ensures that each client receives the personalized care they need to achieve lasting recovery.

What is Dual Diagnosis?

Dual diagnosis, also known as co-occurring disorders, refers to the simultaneous presence of a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder. This condition is more common than many realize. In fact, studies show that approximately 50% of individuals with a mental health disorder also experience substance abuse issues, and vice versa. Conditions often seen in dual diagnosis include:

  • Depression and Alcohol Use Disorder
  • Anxiety Disorders and Prescription Drug Addiction
  • Bipolar Disorder and Cocaine Use Disorder
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Opioid Addiction
  • Schizophrenia and Cannabis Use Disorder

The relationship between mental health issues and substance abuse is complex. Sometimes, individuals use substances as a way to cope with mental health symptoms, leading to addiction. Conversely, the use of drugs and alcohol can exacerbate or trigger mental health issues. This intertwined nature of co-occurring disorders makes dual diagnosis treatment crucial for effective recovery.

Why is Dual Diagnosis Treatment Important?

Dual diagnosis treatment is essential because addressing only one condition can lead to the other remaining untreated, increasing the risk of relapse. At 28s Rehab, we believe that for recovery to be successful and sustainable, it’s crucial to treat both the mental health disorder and the substance use disorder concurrently. This integrated treatment approach is designed to provide holistic care, addressing all aspects of an individual’s mental, emotional, and physical health.

Without dual diagnosis treatment, individuals may:

  • Continue to self-medicate with substances to manage their mental health symptoms.
  • Experience a worsening of mental health issues due to substance abuse.
  • Struggle with a higher likelihood of relapse.
  • Face difficulties in maintaining relationships, employment, and overall quality of life.

Our Approach to Dual Diagnosis Treatment

At 28s Rehab, we offer a comprehensive dual diagnosis program that includes various evidence-based treatment modalities tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. Our integrated approach ensures that every aspect of a person’s well-being is addressed, promoting not only sobriety but also mental health stability and personal growth.

  1. Individualized Assessment and Diagnosis: We start with a thorough assessment to understand the full scope of each client’s mental health and substance use issues. Our experienced clinicians conduct detailed evaluations to diagnose co-occurring disorders accurately. This initial step is crucial in developing a personalized treatment plan that addresses both mental health and addiction issues.
  2. Integrated Therapy Approaches: Our treatment plans include a combination of therapies that address both mental health and addiction. Some of the evidence-based therapies we use include:
    • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps clients identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors associated with both mental health disorders and substance use.
    • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Focuses on teaching coping skills to manage emotions, reduce self-destructive behaviors, and improve relationships.
    • Motivational Interviewing (MI): Encourages clients to find the internal motivation they need to change their behavior.
    • Trauma-Informed Care: Addresses past trauma that may be contributing to substance use and mental health issues, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for healing.
  3. Medication Management: For many clients, medication can play a crucial role in managing mental health symptoms. Our psychiatrists and medical professionals carefully evaluate and prescribe medications when necessary, ensuring that they are effectively integrated into the client’s overall treatment plan. This approach helps stabilize mental health conditions, making it easier for clients to focus on their recovery from addiction.
  4. Holistic Therapies: At 28s Rehab, we believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. Our dual diagnosis treatment program includes holistic therapies such as yoga, meditation, art therapy, and nutrition counseling. These practices promote relaxation, self-awareness, and physical health, all of which are important for long-term recovery.
  5. Family Involvement: Addiction and mental health issues often affect the entire family. We involve families in the treatment process through family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and support groups. This involvement helps families understand co-occurring disorders, improves communication, and provides the support network that is crucial for lasting recovery.
  6. Aftercare and Relapse Prevention: Recovery doesn’t end when treatment does. We provide comprehensive aftercare planning and relapse prevention strategies to help clients maintain their progress after leaving our facility. This may include continued therapy, support groups, outpatient programs, and ongoing psychiatric care. Our goal is to equip clients with the tools they need to live a fulfilling, substance-free life.
