Dual Disorder TreatmentStepping Stone Center for Recovery: Specialized Care and Dual Disorder TreatmentWe don't seem to hear very much about dual disorder treatment, even though it comprises over 50% of the patients we treat. Dual disorder treatment occurs when there are two co-existing disorders, such as alcoholism and depression. In some cases, the depression might subside by discontinuing alcohol use. Other times, the depression had predated the onset of the alcohol use and needs to be treated as a primary diagnosis. Dual disorder treatment is truly an art that needs to be quarterbacked by a psychiatrist with a background in drug addiction and alcoholism. Call us at 1-800-237-3150 now for quality dual disorder treatment. Psychiatric Care in Dual Disorder TreatmentWe are very proud of the national recognition we have achieved. A great deal of it has to do with the quality of our staff and their expertise in treatment of dual disorders. Our psychiatrist is board certified and A.S.A.M. certified (American Society of Addiction Medicine), which places him among the top physicians in the country. To bolster an already comprehensive approach to dual disorder treatment, Stepping Stone Center for Recovery employs a number of psychiatric nurses to accompany our addiction nursing staff. This provides our patients with the perfect blend of addiction and psychiatric care on every level of dual disorder treatment. Dual Disorder Treatment and Medication ManagementThe patients who are admitted to Stepping Stone Center for Recovery's dual disorders program are evaluated as to their need for psychiatric medication. Regardless of the similarity in diagnoses, every patient is treated individually. It is important to keep in mind that everyone responds to medication in a different manner and the effects of the various medications are rarely immediate. In an effort to diminish any discomfort you may feel, our physicians can prescribe additional medication to help you relax. Dual disorder treatment works and so does medication. We see our patients who were once depressed or ridden with anxiety blossom into people capable of appreciating their recovery and everything around them. As with any illness, you have to give yourself time and be committed to the process. The one thing you can count on is that we will never give up on you, so don't give up on yourself! Participate in our drug rehab aftercare program designed to help you maintain recovery. For immediate dual disorder treatment, call us toll-free at 1-800-237-3150. All calls are confidential. |
