Yes. Our Massachusetts substance abuse rehab programs treat co-occurring disorders alongside drug addiction services. Co-occurring disorders, also known as dual diagnosis or comorbid conditions, pertain to the coexistence of both a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder. It is common for individuals struggling with addiction issues to experience mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, or trauma.
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration recommends a combined treatment strategy for addressing substance use disorders and other mental disorders simultaneously. Our Massachusetts drug and alcohol rehab treatment team recognizes the importance of simultaneously addressing addiction and co-occurring disorders through addiction and mental health services.
Integrated treatment approaches are employed to provide comprehensive care that addresses all aspects of an individual’s well-being. For example, if you are enrolled in our heroin addiction treatment program, you will receive comprehensive care that not only focuses on overcoming heroin dependence but also addresses any co-occurring mental health disorders you may be experiencing. By providing integrated and personalized care, our rehab facilities strive to support individuals in their recovery from addiction and associated mental health challenges. Some of the mental health services at our drug rehabs include individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, diagnostic assessments, and medication management.
