Dual Diagnosis
Dual Diagnosis treatment is an approach to help people overcome co-occurring disorders. When a patient has a co-occurring disorder, it means they have one or more substance abuse disorders and, simultaneously, one or more mental health disorders. Co-occurring disorders can require both medical and clinical approaches to therapy depending on the patient and co-occurring disorders are far more common than most people would expect affecting 9.2 million adults in the United States. Understanding and treating co-occurring disorders isn’t a simple thing and it takes a specialized Treatment Team to achieve best possible outcomes.
According to the Cleveland Clinic,
“Researchers have a few theories about why substance use and mental health disorders occur together. Certain risk factors can contribute to both mental health conditions and substance use disorders. These risk factors may include: Genetics: Mental health disorders and substance use disorders can both run in families. Research shows many genes may contribute to your risk of developing either condition. Environmental factors: Environmental factors such as stress and trauma can be passed down through generations. These can contribute to the development of a substance use disorder or a mental health disorder.”
