While most substance abuse programs treat the addiction itself, Recovery Beach understands that drug abuse is most common a symptom of an underlying mental health concern and thats why we employ a dual diagnosis treatment approach.
All treatment plans are completely personalized, as no one person’s journey is the same. Our state-of-the-art facility offers comprehensive medical care with a holistic approach to ensure recovery is sustainable. Committing to treatment can be overwhelming, but if you or your loved one, is sick and tired of living with your addiction, treatment at Recovery Beach can help. We treat people who are addicted to Alcohol, Fentanyl, Heroin, Marijuana, Meth, Benzodiazepines, Cocaine, Crack, Opiates, and Prescription Drugs. Detoxing is dangerous and should only take place in a safe environment with medical professionals, such as Recovery Beach. While detoxing is normally an addicts first step, it can be ineffective and downright dangerous under the wrong circumstances. In some cases, it can even result in death. Detox is intended to put a person in a stable physical state so they can begin therapy to understand the underlying causes behind their addiction.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment Centers
Formerly known as dual diagnosis or dual disorder, co-occurring disorders describe the presence of two or more disorders at the same time. For example, a person may suffer substance abuse as well as bipolar disorder.
Dual Diagnosis in San Diego or dual disorder in San Diego is the condition of suffering from a mental illness and a substance abuse problem. Just as the field of treatment for substance use and mental disorders has evolved to become more precise, so too has the terminology used to describe people with both substance use and mental disorders. The term co-occurring disorders San Diego replaces the terms dual disorder or dual diagnosis. These latter terms, though used commonly to refer to the combination of substance use and mental disorders, are confusing in that they also refer to other combinations of disorders (such as mental disorders and mental retardation).
To provide appropriate treatment for this complex diagnosis, professionals recommend integrated treatment of people with COD based on current research that supports the efficacy of this treatment. Integrated treatment in San Diego is a means of coordinating substance abuse and mental health interventions to treat the whole person more effectively in the context of a primary treatment relationship or service setting.
Integrated Dual Disorders Treatment San Diego occurs when a person receives combined treatment for mental illness and substance use from the same clinician or treatment team. It helps people develop hope, knowledge, skills, and the support they need to manage their problems and to pursue meaningful life goals.
