How Dual Diagnosis Is Diagnosed at Texas Helps
An accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective dual diagnosis treatment. At Texas Helps, we begin with a comprehensive clinical assessment that evaluates both substance use patterns and mental health symptoms. Many individuals enter treatment unaware that an underlying mental health condition is influencing their addiction.
Our diagnostic process may include:
Detailed medical and psychiatric history
Substance use evaluation
Mental health screening for conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, or trauma-related disorders
Review of previous treatment history
Ongoing reassessment throughout treatment
This thorough approach allows our clinical team to develop a treatment plan that addresses root causes, rather than just surface behaviors
The Connection Between Mental Health Disorders and Addiction
Substance use disorders and mental health conditions often reinforce one another. Individuals may use drugs or alcohol to cope with emotional pain, trauma, anxiety, or mood instability. Over time, substance use can worsen mental health symptoms, creating a destructive cycle that is difficult to break without professional support.
Common co-occurring conditions treated in dual diagnosis programs include:
Depression and alcohol or drug addiction
Anxiety disorders and substance misuse
PTSD and trauma-related substance use
Bipolar disorder and addiction
Personality disorders and substance dependence
Treating only one condition often leads to relapse. Integrated dual diagnosis treatment addresses both conditions simultaneously, improving long-term recovery outcomes.

Evidence-Based Therapies Used in Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Texas Helps relies on evidence-based therapies that have proven effective for individuals with co-occurring disorders. Treatment is tailored to each person’s clinical needs and recovery goals.
Therapies may include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps identify and change harmful thought patterns and behaviors
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT):Teaches emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and impulse control
Trauma-Informed Therapy: Supports individuals with past trauma or PTSD
Motivational Interviewing: Strengthens motivation and commitment to recovery
Group Therapy: Builds peer support and shared accountability
Individual Counseling: Provides personalized therapeutic guidance
These therapies help individuals develop healthier coping strategies, manage mental health symptoms, and reduce relapse risk.
Medication Management in Dual Diagnosis Care
For some individuals, psychiatric medication may be an important part of dual diagnosis treatment. Medication management is carefully monitored by qualified medical professionals and used only when clinically appropriate.
Medications may help:
Stabilize mood disorders
Reduce anxiety or depression symptoms
Manage sleep disturbances
Support mental health stability during recovery
Medication is always combined with therapy and behavioral interventions to ensure a balanced and comprehensive approach to care.
Dual diagnosis aftercare may include:
Continued therapy or outpatient programs
Mental health follow-up care
Relapse prevention strategies
Peer support and sober community connections
Family education and involvement
Coordination with community mental health resources
This continuity of care helps individuals maintain emotional stability while navigating real-world challenges.
Why Integrated Dual Diagnosis Treatment Matters
Dual diagnosis treatment requires coordination between mental health professionals, addiction specialists, and medical providers. Fragmented care can lead to misdiagnosis, ineffective treatment, and relapse.
At Texas Helps, integration means:
One coordinated treatment team
Unified treatment goals
Ongoing communication between providers
A clear recovery pathway from detox to aftercare
This approach improves treatment engagement, reduces relapse risk, and supports sustainable recovery.
