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 07039 or dual disorder in 07039 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 07039 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 07039 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 07039 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.
