Dual Diagnosis Treatment
When substance abuse intertwines with mental health disorders, the path to recovery becomes more intricate. Dual diagnosis demands a nuanced approach, understanding not just the symptoms but their interconnected roots.
Treating the Whole, Not Just the Part
Understanding Dual Diagnosis
The Pearl’s Holistic Approach to Dual Diagnosis
At The Pearl, we approach dual diagnosis with the understanding that treating only one aspect of the problem is not enough. Effective treatment must address both conditions to prevent a cycle of untreated mental health issues leading back to substance abuse and vice versa.
Our dual diagnosis treatment includes:
- Intensive individual and group therapy to provide a supportive and understanding environment
- Trauma therapy to address any past experiences that may contribute to substance use and mental health conditions
- Solution-focused therapies that encourage active problem-solving skills
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to alter negative thought patterns and improve emotional regulation
- Psychoeducational groups focusing on life skills, mindfulness/meditation, managing anger, transfer of addiction, and relapse prevention
Common Co-Occurring Disorders Treated
- Alcohol and drug addiction
- Anxiety disorders
- Major depressive disorder
- Bipolar disorder
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Eating disorders
