Dual Diagnosis

Many people who struggle with addiction also suffer from co-occurring mental health conditions. At our drug rehabilitation center in Connecticut, we understand the challenges of dual diagnosis and offer comprehensive treatment that addresses both conditions.

Our team of experienced professionals will work with you to create an individualized treatment plan that addresses your unique needs. Our evidence-based approach integrates behavioral therapy, group and individual therapy, and other holistic therapies to help you achieve and maintain sobriety and mental wellness.

Dual Diagnosis (also known as a co-occurring disorder) is the concurrence of a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder in an individual.

Mental illness and addiction are often closely linked because individuals with mental health conditions may turn to substance use as a form of self-medication. Substance use can temporarily alleviate symptoms of mental illness but ultimately leads to negative consequences and makes the underlying condition worse. Additionally, substance use can also cause or worsen mental health problems. It is important to address both mental illness and addiction in a comprehensive and integrated manner for effective treatment and recovery.

Residents at Paramount Wellness Retreat undergo thorough assessments and evaluations. Our team will get to the root of the problems and treat any co-occurring disorders with an individualized treatment plan for both conditions.
