Dual Diagnosis Drug Treatment

Texas Alcohol Rehabs

For years alcohol rehabs in Texas and surrounding cities like Fort Worth, Dallas, Plano or Houston have been providing effective treatment for alcoholism. These alcohol rehabs, some of which are recognized on a national basis, have provided the residents of Texas with exceptional care. The problem was that over the yeas more and more people being admitted to Texas alcohol rehabs have had psychiatric disorders. The co-existance of a drug addiction and alcohol addiction, coupled with a psychiatric problem is referred to as a dual diagnosis. There were not many Texas alcohol rehabs treating dual diagnosis in a state of the art fashion.

Texas Dual Diagnosis Treatment

To date, a few of the Texas alcohol rehabs have added a dual diagnosis treatment component. Texas dual diagnosis treatment centers are still developing. A dual diagnosis treatment program in Texas must have a strong psychiatric comonent to support the addiction treatment. Any quality Texas dual diagnosis treatment center whether in Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio or Abilene, will have a board certified psychiatrist, who is also trained in addiction medicine. A psychiatrist with this training is imperative as the Texas dual diagnosis treatment program will treat both disorders concurrently and the physician needs to have a thorough background in both areas.
