If you’re considering drug and alcohol treatment in the Frankfort, Kentucky area, you’ve likely come across several terms, including addiction psychiatry, dual diagnosis, and even medication-assisted treatment. Determining the type of treatment you need for substance abuse and fixation, especially if you’re struggling with withdrawal symptoms or a co-occurring mood disorder, can be difficult.

People who struggle with addiction often feel that regular counseling alone will not help them control their symptoms or cravings. If you’re searching for local mental health services for addiction, withdrawal, or other uncomfortable symptoms you may be experiencing due to drugs or alcohol abuse, it’s important to remember that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all arrangement. Our counselors and psychiatrists in Frankfort are specifically trained to treat addiction.

How Can Psychiatry Help Treat Addiction

Seeing a psychiatrist for a thorough evaluation can help addiction patients receive the comprehensive care needed for a successful recovery. First, you have the benefit of a medical doctor’s expertise, and second, you have access to the additional training psychiatrists specialize in. Your psychiatrist at CommonHealth Recovery strives to partner with you to uncover reasons for addiction and make your detox symptoms less unpleasant. At the same time, you wean yourself off your narcotic of choice.

According to American Addiction Centers, many rehab programs fail due to a lack of trained health care professionals and a confusing ideology that relies on the false belief that patients need to “hit rock bottom” before getting help.

At our facility, we partner with our patients every step of the way — from the moment they call for help until their last session at our clinic. Here, we make it a point to address our patients’ underlying mental disorders and behavioral health issues by providing a thorough psychiatric evaluation as well as psychiatric services for drug users.

With proper mental health treatment and compassion care it is possible to prevent relapse back to substance abuse.

Having a dual diagnosis means that you have an underlying mood disorder or co-occurring mental health conditions that can complicate your treatment — and sometimes even push you to relapse and self-medicate with substance abuse.

To achieve lasting recovery from addiction comprehensive treatment must entail treating the substance use disorder and mental illness at the same time. Below are a few mental health disorders that commonly occur with substance use disorders:

Depression
Anxiety Disorder
Bipolar disorder
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Autism Spectrum Disorder
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
