Mental Health Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hunters Hollow, KY.

Mental health treatment is often an important part of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, due to the fact that many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health issue. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last several years, and many rehabilitation programs in Hunters Hollow now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services in addition to traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, especially when substance abuse is involved. In many cases, the individual doesn't initially even know they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, treatment steps can be completed to help the client become mentally stable, and this may involve the use of specific counseling, therapies, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, treatment staff and medical professionals can review medication histories and suggest actions which can be introduced to remove the need for medication. Individuals can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
