Successful treatment and recovery must focus on both the physical and mental/emotional aspects of addiction. Many people who suffer from alcohol dependence or drug dependence are oftentimes also afflicted by mental disorders, which can include post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD, severe depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder or ADHD/ADD.
Unfortunately, many addiction treatment centers and mental health programs treat only one condition, resulting in the patient being under-treated or inappropriately treated and ultimately contributing to chronic relapse.
Las Virgenes Behavioral Health Treatment Center specializes in Dual Diagnosis treatments by addressing both substance abuse and co-occurring mental/emotional health issues. Doing so ensures that we empower you with a healthy recovery, sustained sobriety and maximal long-term happiness and productivity.
