Adult Dual Diagnosis Programs

Chemical Dependency and Mental Illness = Dual Diagnosis

“My life was chaotic and I was deep in my addiction“. This was Kim when she began the Adult Dual Diagnosis Program. She was struggling with chemical dependency and underlying mental health issues, which can be a barrier to relapse prevention and long-term recovery. Today she has almost completed her treatment and is happy to have more clarity and self-awareness and healthier relationships. She has overcome her addiction and misery and looks forward to a brighter tomorrow.

Kim was able to flourish because she experienced a comprehensive, integrated treatment program that combines the experience of professionals from both the mental health and substance abuse fields into a single treatment program. Our caring counselors effectively treat both the chemical dependency and any underlying mental health concerns, and will include a faith-based model of recovery if desired, which results in sustained treatment outcomes. This integrated approach sets us apart and provides clients, like Kim, long-term success.

If you are reading this and wondering if someone you know may have a substance use disorder, start to observe behaviors and look for signs that will help you to help them.

If you know someone who is using a prescribed drug and wonder if they are over-using, there are behaviors that will inform you if there is a problem.
