Understanding Dual Diagnosis Recovery

[Malibu, CA] - Sunset Malibu, an exclusive dual diagnosis recovery facility on the Malibu coast, has long been a transformational force in the field of mental health counseling and recovery. Now, Sunset is announcing its redoubled efforts in helping clients understand what is dual diagnosis and overcome the ravages of mental illness and substance abuse.

Mental illness and substance abuse are unique diseases. By the same token,
dual diagnosis recovery must have a unique process. The only effective dual diagnosis recovery facility is one which provides specially designed recovery programs to their clients. In the end, there's simply no other way to promote meaningful and lasting wellness.

Those considerations, in turn, are at the heart of Sunset Malibu's treatment philosophy.

With its world-class caregivers and elegant accommodations, Sunset Malibu is an unparalleled recovery destination. The center has always catered to upscale clients from every corner of the globe. Now Sunset is renewing its commitment to its core values, with the goal of delivering life-changing care to individuals who seek it. At Sunset Malibu, the client always comes first.

"Dual diagnosis recovery is fundamentally distinct from substance abuse recovery," said Sunset Malibu's Program Director. "That's why our exclusive dual diagnosis recovery facility is specially designed to help clients meet the challenges of the dual diagnosis recovery process. We believe that our long record of success proves the merits of our methods."

Unfortunately, that emphasis on targeted and nuanced care is precisely what sets Sunset apart from its competitors.

It's easy for a dual diagnosis recovery clinic to pay lip service to the importance of specialized treatment. It's harder for a dual diagnosis recovery clinic to live up to their own standards. The truth is that many of the most high-priced dual diagnosis recovery facilities in California provide the same generic program to all victims. Unsurprisingly, these institutions routinely fail to help clients achieve sustainable sobriety and recovery.

Under the circumstances, argues Sunset's Clinical Team, those shortcomings are inexcusable.

"The stakes in the fight against mental illness and substance abuse are enormous," Sunset Malibu's Program Director said. "At Sunset Malibu, we're keenly aware of our responsibility, and we do everything in our power to repay the faith our clients invest in us. To do anything less would be to breach our professional and ethical obligations."

It's no secret that mental illness and substance abuse ruins lives. What might not be so obvious, though, is that dual diagnosis recovery therapy really can help to solve the problem. The experts at Sunset Malibu have proven themselves capable of guiding clients towards healthier and happier futures. As those clients have learned firsthand, no outcome could ever be more desirable than that one.
