Residential / inpatientDual diagnosisDetox availableWhat dual diagnosis treatment involves
Co-occurring disorders are common: many people in addiction treatment also live with a mental health condition. Integrated dual diagnosis programs look at both from day one rather than sending you to separate providers.
If you have been treated for one condition while the other was ignored, a dual diagnosis program may be the missing piece.
What to expect
- Ongoing support after discharge
- Clinicians trained in both addiction and mental health
- Therapies such as CBT, DBT and trauma-focused care
- Private or semi-private rooms in many programs
What Texas rules mean for dual diagnosis treatment
Texas rules call dual diagnosis COPSD, for co-occurring psychiatric and substance use disorders, and require screening, assessment and treatment to stay connected for each client. NIDA's research finds that treating both conditions together generally works best.
What to ask a program
- Who manages medications after discharge?
- How often will I see a psychiatric provider?
- How soon is the psychiatric evaluation?

Frequently asked questions
What if my loved one won't go to treatment?
You can talk with a specialist about how to approach the conversation. In Texas, Health and Safety Code Chapter 462 also lets a family member or other adult apply to the county court for court-ordered treatment, with a physician's certificate attached, when someone's addiction makes them likely to cause serious harm or keep deteriorating. See our guide to court-ordered treatment in Texas.
How do I get into dual diagnosis treatment near Dallas?
Most admissions start with a phone call. A specialist asks a few questions about substance use, health and insurance, then helps you find a program with an opening. Many residential programs in Texas can admit someone within a day or two once insurance is verified.
What conditions does dual diagnosis treatment cover?
Common pairings include addiction with depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder or ADHD. Programs assess both at intake and treat them together.
Do dual diagnosis programs prescribe medication?
Yes. Residential dual diagnosis programs include psychiatric providers who can prescribe and manage medications for mental health conditions.
