Why Dual Diagnosis Treatment Matters
Treating only addiction or mental health issues in isolation often leads to relapse. If someone receives addiction treatment without addressing their mental illness, symptoms like anxiety or depression may worsen, increasing the risk of self-medication with drugs or alcohol. Likewise, treating mental health alone without tackling substance use can prevent true healing.
Wake Point Recovery offers a holistic, individualized approach that treats the whole person. Our team understands the intricate relationship between mental health disorders and addiction, ensuring that clients receive comprehensive care. Through personalized treatment plans, we help individuals build coping mechanisms, regain control, and achieve long-term addiction recovery.
Anxiety Disorder
Chronic anxiety often leads to self-medication with drugs or alcohol. Our dual diagnosis rehab focuses on reducing anxiety symptoms through therapy, medication when needed, and holistic practices like mindfulness. Addressing the root causes of anxiety helps clients develop healthier coping mechanisms and emotional resilience, promoting long-term mental wellness.
Bipolar Disorder
Extreme mood swings in bipolar disorder can be a risk factor for substance use, as individuals may turn to drugs or alcohol to self-medicate during periods of mania or depression. At Wake Point Recovery, we provide specialized care that stabilizes mood while addressing addiction triggers, helping clients manage both the emotional highs and lows.
PTSD and Trauma
Unresolved trauma can drive substance abuse disorders. Through trauma-focused therapies, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), we help clients process their past and find healthier ways to cope. These therapies empower individuals to confront and heal from painful memories, breaking the cycle of self-medication with substances.
Chronic Stress
Stress is a major contributor to substance abuse. In many cases, chronic stress acts as a catalyst for substance misuse, leading individuals to seek temporary relief through drugs or alcohol. This cycle can make recovery more difficult, as stress remains an ongoing trigger. At Wake Point Recovery, our comprehensive approach teaches clients how to manage stress through therapy, exercise, meditation, and other effective techniques.
Types of Therapy in Dual Diagnosis Programs
Dual Diagnosis includes various types of therapy to address drug and alcohol addiction and support recovery:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)- CBT helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns that contribute to substance use and mental illness. Clients learn how to develop healthier responses to stress and triggers. By gaining a deep understanding of their thoughts and behaviors, clients can make more informed choices and build resilience against future challenges, leading to sustainable recovery and improved mental well-being.
-Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) - DBT is particularly effective for individuals with mood disorders or a history of trauma. It teaches emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, essential skills for long-term recovery. By helping clients manage intense emotions and navigate difficult situations, DBT provides tools to prevent impulsive decisions and reduce the risk of relapse.
Outpatient treatment in Los Angeles, California, is generally more affordable than inpatient rehab. Since many individuals live at home during treatment, they avoid the costs associated with housing and meals. Wake Point Recovery accepts a variety of insurance plans and works closely with clients to verify coverage. The team ensures that clients understand their financial responsibilities before beginning treatment, making outpatient rehab an accessible option for many.
