It is common for those suffering from addiction to also have other mental disorders. These individuals suffer from a dual diagnosis. In many cases, individuals have been abusing alcohol, drugs or both in order to medicate the symptoms of other co-occurring disorders. Disorders frequently seen with our clients include Bipolar Disease, Depression, Anxiety, and Trauma Related Disorders. We also work with clients that struggle with Personality Disorders and Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders. These people benefit from a dual diagnosis treatment center that can work with both illnesses concurrently.
