Dual Diagnosis Treatment at Bright Mission Recovery
Integrated care for substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders
What Is Dual Diagnosis?
Dual diagnosis refers to the co-occurrence of a substance use disorder (SUD) and one or more mental health disorders. According to SAMHSA, approximately 9.2 million adults in the United States experience both conditions simultaneously.
Why Integrated Treatment Matters
Treating both conditions together is essential for lasting recovery. When only one disorder is addressed, the untreated condition often triggers relapse in the other.
Our Integrated Approach
At Bright Mission Recovery, we provide comprehensive dual diagnosis treatment that addresses both substance use and mental health disorders simultaneously through evidence-based therapies.

Integrated Healing for Addiction & Mental Health
The National Institute of Mental Health clarifies that while substance use and mental health disorders often occur together, one does not necessarily cause the other. Our simultaneous treatment model addresses both conditions as interconnected parts of your overall health.
