Concurrent Disorders

We understand that addiction and mental health do not happen in isolation. We will work with you to develop a plan that simultaneously addresses concurrent disorders. 

While managing a mental health disorder, you may have turned to substances to cope. The opposite is also true—continued substance abuse can lead to anxiety, depression and other serious mental health challenges.

For individuals suffering from concurrent disorders, it is important to treat both conditions simultaneously. This approach provides the best short- and long-term outcomes.

What is a Concurrent Disorder?

A concurrent disorder is the simultaneous occurrence of substance use and a mental health disorder. For example, someone with a concurrent disorder may experience bipolar disorder alongside an opioid addiction or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) alongside alcohol addiction.

Why is Specialized Care Important For Concurrent Disorders?

Effective care for concurrent disorders must take into account the unique history, challenges, needs and goals of the individual in care. It is essential that care teams work together to understand the interplay between the concurrent disorders and develop a comprehensive treatment plan for the individual. 

At The Healing Institute, we begin with a comprehensive assessment led by a multidisciplinary team of professionals. The assessment is designed to help our team better understand you and the unique circumstances that led you to reach out for help.

Individualized Treatment to Address Your Needs

We offer a holistic, structured program to treat concurrent disorders based on your unique needs. Working in partnership with any external healthcare providers, we develop a treatment plan that integrates modalities to improve your mental, emotional and physical health. Together, we will help you work towards a brighter future where you have the tools and resources to manage any challenges that come your way.

Personalized treatment is supported by clinical research as a cornerstone of effective recovery. It ensures that care is:

  • Holistic: Addressing concurrent disorders, underlying trauma and social determinants of health
  • Targeted: Interventions are aligned with specific goals, reducing unnecessary or ineffective treatments.
  • Sustainable: Clients are equipped with tailored strategies and tools for long-term recovery, enhancing their ability to reintegrate into their communities.

The Healing Institute’s commitment to maintaining small numbers and delivering individualized treatment reflects our dedication to clinical excellence. Our approach ensures that each client receives the attention, resources, and interventions necessary to achieve meaningful and lasting recovery.

Our Approach to Inpatient Treatment

When treating concurrent disorders, there are two fundamental requirements that need to be met.

First, we need to conduct a thorough assessment led by addiction and mental health professionals. We need an individual to be sober at the time of the assessment to ensure that the results are accurate.

After a comprehensive assessment, we develop a personalized treatment plan directly based on the assessment results. This work is conducted by a highly trained group of clinicians working together to ensure that our participants receive care targeted to their specific needs.
