Co-Occurring Disorders

Addiction is a tall hill to climb.

Mental illness is also a tall hill to climb.

When you’re dealing with both… there’s quite a mountain in front of you.

Co-Occurring Disorders is the “both” mentioned above (it used to be called Dual Diagnosis). So not only are you dealing with an addiction of some kind, but you’re also struggling with depression, anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, PTSD, or some other mental health diagnosis.

You’ve got your work cut out for you as addiction and mental illness can impact every single area of your life. Sometimes dealing with Co-Occurring Disorders can feel like you are struggling everyday just to keep your head above water, and swimming anywhere seems like a luxury that’s out of the question.

We work to help you balance and coordinate your treatment and recovery from both addiction and mental illness. I help you navigate in a world that might misunderstand or even stigmatize one or both of your issues.
