New Treatment

Traditional treatments for persons with serious mental illness and substance abuse disorders have historically not been fully effective. Because there is a high prevalence of substance abuse among people with mental illness, new treatment approaches have been developed to target this population specifically. Integrated approaches to treatment are considered to be more effective. In the following review of literature, the authors have described traditional treatment approaches and why they have been ineffective in facilitating recovery for individuals with dual diagnosis. Integrated treatment approaches are described and reviewed as to their efficacy in facilitating recovery and their cost-effectiveness. Characteristics of people who benefit most from integrated treatment are also presented. Finally, barriers to recovery for persons with dual diagnosis and implications for Rehabilitation Counselors are also examined.
