Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - West Medford, MA.

Mental health treatment is often an essential part of the treatment of addiction disorders, because many individuals with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health problem. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last several years, and many rehab programs in West Medford now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a broader spectrum of services together with traditional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.

In most instances, mental health treatment starts with 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 undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be put forth to help the client become mentally stable, and this can include the use of certain psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication administration or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, treatment staff and medical professionals can assess medication histories and propose actions which can be introduced to eliminate the need for medication. Clients can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
