Struggling with both mental health challenges and substance use is common. We offer integrated co-occurring disorders treatment to address addiction and mental health together, helping you uncover root causes of substance use while building real, sustainable change.
With structured support and a trauma-informed approach, our treatment programs guide you through the beginning of your recovery journey and leave you feeling empowered and ready for a transformed life.
What is co-occurring disorders treatment?
Co-occurring disorders treatment—sometimes called dual diagnosis care—refers to the integrated treatment of both substance use disorders and mental health conditions. These diagnoses often intersect, with mental health concerns like depression, PTSD, or anxiety either contributing to or worsening substance use. At Sheridan Grove Recovery, we treat both issues concurrently to support lasting recovery and prevent relapse.
Common co-occurring conditions include:
- Depression
- Generalized anxiety disorder
- PTSD and trauma-related disorders
- Bipolar disorder
- ADHD
- Schizoaffective disorder
- Sleep disorders
When these conditions go untreated alongside addiction, recovery becomes far more challenging. That’s why our programs take a whole-person, intensive approach to healing and why we’re here for you every step of the way.
Who should get treatment for co-occurring mental health disorders?
Anyone facing both addiction and mental health challenges can benefit from co-occurring disorders treatment. This specialized care is particularly important for people who:
- Feel overwhelmed by emotional distress when not using substances
- Have tried addiction treatment in the past without addressing mental health and have experienced relapse
- Use drugs or alcohol as a way to manage trauma, stress, or mental health-related symptoms
- Have been diagnosed with a mood or anxiety disorder but continue to struggle with substance use
At Sheridan Grove Recovery, we provide customized assessments to ensure mental health needs are never overlooked. Everyone deserves comprehensive care that addresses the full scope of what they’re experiencing. Deeply rooted concerns require more than surface-level care.
What can I expect from co-occurring disorders treatment?
Treatment for co-occurring disorders at Sheridan Grove Recovery is integrated into our inpatient addiction treatment model. That means you’ll receive mental health and addiction treatment side by side—with one team, one plan, and one goal: your full recovery.
