Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - St. Michael, AK.

Mental health treatment is an important component of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health problem. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly evident over the last several years, and many rehabilitation centers in St. Michael also provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services in addition to conventional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the client doesn't initially even know they have an anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be taken to help the individual become mentally stable, and this might include the use of specific counseling, therapies, and perhaps medication administration or cessation of medication. In many instances however, individuals struggling with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or possibly misusing their medications. In these instances, professional staff and medical professionals can determine medication histories and recommend steps which can be taken to get rid of the need for medication. Patients can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
