Embracing Dual Recovery Services for Holistic Wellbeing
Recovery is complex. It can sometimes feel like trying to solve a puzzle, but not all the pieces fit together. By combining mild mental health and substance abuse treatments through our dual recovery services, you can address everything holding you or your loved one back from recovery.
LESC Dual Recovery Services offers comprehensive and integrated support for individuals struggling with a substance use disorder (SUD) and a mental health disorder (such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia), or problem gambling. Our team recognizes that a gambling addiction can be just as destructive as other addictions, and often co-occurs with SUDs. However, a dual diagnosis is not necessary to participate in the program.
Our dual recovery services are designed to help you face struggles you may not even realize are contributing to your addiction. Just one of the ways we can support a resilient recovery includes advocating for our clients through every step of the process, including:
• Wellness • Education • Vocational training • Life skills • Supportive housing • Support on the job • Legal issues • And more
The LESC Dual Recovery Services Program helps to ensure that the underlying causes and triggers are identified and treated appropriately – leading to more positive and lasting outcomes. We work with you to create a solid foundation for addressing different issues within your life while helping you build a comprehensive plan for reintegrating into the larger community.
