Dual Diagnosis Treatment Center Offers Synchronized Alcoholism Recovery Care

Addiction rehabilitation center Michael’s House spotlighted its progressive Dual Diagnosis alcohol treatment program, offering tailored addiction recovery to those struggling with mental health concerns. Treating a variety of co-occurring mental disorders, ranging from depression and anxiety to eating disorders and personality disorders, the California addiction treatment center offers simultaneous treatment of addiction issues alongside intensive psychological care customized to client needs.

“Studies have repeatedly shown that Dual Diagnosis patients benefit most from addiction treatment that offers synchronized care,” explained Krista Gilbert, Michael’s House Chief Executive Officer. “Many patients experience the pain and confusion of a secondary mental health condition that requires concurrent treatment in order to achieve lasting sobriety.”

Michael’s House’s recovery approach employs the Foundations Recovery Network treatment model, a methodology based on the principles of motivation, behavioral change and simultaneous treatment of mental health issues and addictions. Used by the nation’s most reputable rehabilitation centers, the Foundation Treatment Model has been found to garner one-year sobriety rates two times higher than the national average in nearly a dozen federally funded studies.

With a long reputation for specializing in instances where mental health issues may compound chemical dependency or behavioral addictions – known as “Dual Diagnosis” cases – the drug and alcohol rehab center aims to achieve addiction recovery through a 360-degree treatment approach. Patients receive on-site detoxification to break the physical addiction to alcohol, augmented by customized counseling guided by clinical therapists in personalized and group therapy settings. The center’s Palm Springs campus also offers patients 12-step involvement, fitness and nutritional guidance, and life skills training.

“For the majority of addicted individuals, alcohol dependency rarely arises in a vacuum,” said Gilbert. “At Michael’s House, our treatment program spans all aspects of living, promoting healing for the body, mind and soul.”
