When individuals seek treatment at our residential treatment center in Portland, Oregon, they complete a comprehensive assessment with a member of our medical team. A therapist or counselor will evaluate an individual to identify a mental health disorder or co-occurring substance use disorder. Throughout recovery in dual-diagnosis treatment centers, individuals are regularly evaluated to determine if their individualized treatment plan requires adjustment. Comprehensive assessment also helps with medication management.

Medically supervised detox is essential to help treat the substance use disorders co-occurring with a mental health condition in a dual diagnosis. Detoxification helps individuals manage withdrawal symptoms while also helping them stop the abuse of a substance.

A variety of therapeutic interventions are necessary to tackle the interaction between different psychological conditions and addiction. When people’s psychological needs are met, it becomes much easier for them to build life skills. At Crestview Recovery, our evidence-based therapies for dual diagnosis include:

Individual Therapy

Family Therapy

Group Therapy

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Addressing psychological illness alongside substance use disorders lowers the risk of relapse. A holistic treatment plan improves the chances of achieving success and long-lasting recovery.

Holistic therapies play a pivotal role in dual diagnosis treatment by addressing the interconnected well-being of the mind, body, and spirit. Holistic approaches such as yoga, meditation, mindfulness, art therapy, and acupuncture can help individuals heal physically and emotionally. Promoting overall wellness as an integral component of the recovery journey. These therapies not only provide valuable tools for coping with mental health challenges but also contribute to a more comprehensive and sustainable recovery experience when combined with other therapeutic interventions.

At Crestview Recovery in Portland, Oregon, our commitment to comprehensive care includes a specialized medication management program tailored for individuals navigating dual diagnoses. The medication management program is designed to optimize the therapeutic benefits of prescribed medications, ensuring a balanced and effective treatment plan. Occasionally medications are prescribed to treat substance use, but medication is more commonly used for treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental health disorders. Regular monitoring and adjustments, when necessary, are integral to this program, providing individuals with the personalized support needed for successful recovery.

Our aftercare program in Portland, Oregon, is for those in addiction and mental health recovery. Aftercare includes training for relapse prevention and guidance for the next steps of treatment. Individuals in the dual diagnosis program at Crestview Recovery may move on to intensive outpatient treatment, traditional outpatient therapy, our partial hospitalization program, or sober living. Dual-diagnosis patients may require intensive therapy and can continue their therapeutic regimen in outpatient treatment.

The specific elements of an aftercare program can be tailored to meet individual needs, promoting sustained sobriety and mental well-being. Regular check-ins, ongoing therapeutic support, and access to community resources are common features, ensuring a seamless transition from intensive treatment to a more independent, yet supported, post-rehabilitation life.
