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
- A thorough intake that looks at mental health and substance use

Frequently asked questions
Should someone from Lubbock stay in Texas for treatment?
For most Texans with a Texas health plan, yes. In-network benefits are easiest to use at Texas programs, family can take part in family sessions, and aftercare near home is simpler to arrange. Some people choose a program in a different part of Texas to get distance from where they used.
Does insurance cover dual diagnosis treatment in Texas?
Most commercial health plans cover medically necessary addiction treatment, including residential and inpatient care. Texas law requires group plans to cover chemical dependency treatment on terms no less favorable than physical illness, and state and federal parity rules apply. Coverage depends on your plan, network and medical necessity reviews, so it helps to verify benefits before admission.
Do dual diagnosis programs prescribe medication?
Yes. Residential dual diagnosis programs include psychiatric providers who can prescribe and manage medications for mental health conditions.
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.
