When mental health challenges and addiction overlap, recovery takes more than willpower. It takes a treatment team who understands how these two pieces connect. At Waterside Recovery, our Dual Diagnosis Treatment program helps you heal both your mind and your body—because lasting recovery means treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
When mental health challenges and addiction overlap, recovery takes more than willpower. It takes a treatment team who understands how these two pieces connect. At Waterside Recovery, our Dual Diagnosis Treatment program helps you heal both your mind and your body—because lasting recovery means treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
A dual diagnosis, also known as co-occurring disorders, means someone is living with both a mental health condition and a substance use disorder. It’s incredibly common—nearly half of all people with addiction also experience a mental health issue like anxiety, depression, PTSD, or bipolar disorder.
These two conditions can intensify each other. Someone might use substances to manage painful emotions or trauma symptoms, while addiction itself can worsen mental health over time. Without integrated care, recovery can feel like a revolving door—treating one condition while the other remains unaddressed.
At Waterside Recovery, we bridge that gap with integrated dual diagnosis treatment, where mental health therapy, medication management, and addiction recovery happen together under one compassionate plan.
Our program blends evidence-based therapies, medication management, and community connection to treat both substance use and mental health together. You’ll receive a personalized treatment plan that may include:
Our approach emphasizes connection and balance, helping you learn how to manage symptoms, prevent relapse, and feel grounded in everyday life.
At Waterside Recovery, we know that healing doesn’t always mean stepping away from your life—it means finding balance within it. That’s why our dual diagnosis treatment options are designed to offer structure, flexibility, and consistent support as you heal from both mental health challenges and addiction.
Our Day Treatment Program provides the highest level of outpatient care. Clients participate in full-day sessions, typically five days a week, focused on intensive therapy, medication management, and life-skills development. This setting is ideal for those transitioning from residential care or needing daily clinical support without an overnight stay.
You’ll build coping skills, process emotions, and learn to manage symptoms in real time—all with the stability of returning home each evening.
Our Afternoon Treatment Program offers a structured yet flexible schedule for those balancing work, school, or family responsibilities. Sessions are held in the late afternoon, combining group therapy, individual counseling, and recovery education.
This level of care helps clients maintain accountability and structure while continuing to practice recovery skills in everyday life.
Our Outpatient Program is designed for individuals who have built a foundation of recovery and are ready to maintain momentum with less intensive support. Clients attend therapy sessions and ongoing check-ins that reinforce relapse prevention, emotional regulation, and continued personal growth.
Outpatient care ensures you stay connected to the support network that understands your story—even after completing higher levels of treatment.
Traditional programs sometimes treat mental health and addiction separately, but dual diagnosis clients need more. Integrated treatment means one care team, one plan, and a shared understanding of how your mind and body influence each other.
With integrated care, clients experience:
Our clinicians are trained in both addiction medicine and behavioral health, ensuring no part of your recovery is overlooked.
At Waterside Recovery, we provide dual diagnosis care for people facing both mental health challenges and substance use. Our programs address a range of addictions with evidence-based treatment, emotional support, and compassionate care.
Our alcohol treatment program helps clients manage cravings, rebuild stability, and address the underlying stress, anxiety, or depression that often fuel drinking.
Cocaine use can quickly become overwhelming. Our cocaine addiction treatment program focuses on restoring balance through therapy, relapse prevention, and healthier ways to manage energy and emotion.
Whether from painkillers, heroin, or fentanyl, opiate addiction requires specialized care. Our opiate addiction treatment program includes medical oversight, therapy, and structured recovery planning to support long-term healing.
For other substances—like stimulants, sedatives, or benzodiazepines—we provide personalized treatment that targets both physical dependence and emotional recovery in our drug addiction treatment program.
Each program at Waterside Recovery is designed with dual diagnosis in mind—treating addiction and mental health together, so you can recover fully and move forward with confidence.
