AM Behavioral Health provides comprehensive treatment for dual diagnosis, addressing co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders.
Millions of adults in the United States are impacted by co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, a condition known as dual diagnosis. When left untreated, these co-occurring disorders can significantly diminish daily functioning and quality of life.
The prevalence of dual diagnosis is staggering. The widespread rates of dual diagnosis underscore the critical importance of simultaneously addressing both the mental health condition and the substance use disorder through comprehensive, integrated treatment approaches.
Treating just one issue while leaving the other unaddressed often allows the cyclical pattern of symptoms to perpetuate itself.

Our goal is to break the cyclical pattern of dual diagnosis by treating the root causes and providing our clients with the tools to sustain long-term recovery.
The relationship between mental health and substance use disorders is complex and bidirectional. Mental health conditions can increase vulnerability to substance abuse as a means of self-medication or escape, while substance use can often trigger or exacerbate psychiatric symptoms.
This interplay creates a vicious cycle that can be challenging to break without proper intervention. Attempting to treat only one condition allows the other to perpetuate the cycle of symptoms, undermining the recovery process.
Integrated treatment that addresses both the mental health disorder and the substance use disorder simultaneously is crucial for achieving lasting recovery and improving overall well-being.
Comprehensive, integrated care that targets co-occurring disorders offers numerous benefits, including:
By treating the whole person through a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach, integrated treatment increases the likelihood of sustained recovery and improved quality of life.
Dual diagnosis can involve various combinations of mental health and substance use disorders. In fact, it’s estimated that anywhere from 50-80% of individuals with substance use disorder also struggle with a mental health disorder.
Some co-occurring conditions are particularly prevalent, such as:
Depression and Alcohol/Drug Addiction
Anxiety Disorders and Substance Use Disorder
Bipolar Disorder and Substance Use Disorder
PTSD and Substance Use Disorder
At AM Behavioral Health, we offer specialized programs and tailored treatment plans to effectively address these and other common co-occurring disorders.
Do you have questions regarding dual diagnosis and recovery? We’re here to provide support.
Dual diagnosis refers to the coexistence of a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder in the same individual. These conditions often exacerbate each other, creating a cyclical pattern that requires integrated treatment.
Treating only one condition allows the other to perpetuate the cycle of symptoms, undermining the recovery process. Integrated treatment addresses the root causes of both disorders simultaneously, improving treatment engagement, outcomes, and reducing the risk of relapse.
Our integrated approach incorporates therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), medication-assisted treatment (MAT), trauma-focused therapies, and psychoeducational groups.
These treatment modalities will vary depending on individual needs, goals, and experiences.
