At Alternative to Meds Center we are experts at treating Dual Diagnosis patients with alternative, holistic methods. The following are the top 5 components Alternative to Meds Center addresses at our residential, Dual Diagnosis treatment program.

1: Over half of the people who come to our program are dealing with both substance abuse and a co-occurring mental illness, aka: Dual-Diagnosis. We treat our residents holistically, which means that, while we are experts at treating alcoholism, medication dependency and drug addiction, we also address the underlying issues that are causing their addiction or dependency. We do so in a way that address the entire individual, as a whole, on a psychological, physiological and nutritional level.

2: At Alternative to Meds Center we offer a comprehensive Dual Diagnosis treatment program. Our residents’ detox and medication tapering progress is monitored every step of the way by our highly experienced staff, which includes medical professionals, along with a team of skilled therapists and health care providers from a wide range of healing practices.

3: We realize that sometimes a mental health issue may predate a person’s substance abuse. We take into consideration all aspects of a person’s past and present as it pertains to their current health and wellness. Our approach to helping an individual recover from the symptoms of their Dual Diagnosis involves addressing any mental and physical symptoms that may factor into their present condition, while providing healthy nutritional and activity regimens to fully support both physical and mental healing.

4: People suffering from Dual Diagnosis are unique and require unique services, services that are not typically be addressed by your run-of-the-mill addiction treatment facilities. Alternative To Meds Center specializes in Dual Diagnosis treatment and both our residents and our graduates benefit from our wealth of experience when it comes to alternative approaches to psychiatry.

5: Our professional, medically supervised detox program addresses the process of clearing a person’s body of drugs, alcohol, and any other toxic substances, while our psychotherapeutic support and nurturing care network address any contributing mental and emotional issues the resident may be struggling to cope with.
