Residential / inpatientDual diagnosisHow dual diagnosis treatment works
Dual diagnosis treatment treats a substance use disorder and a mental health condition, such as depression, anxiety, PTSD or bipolar disorder, at the same time and by the same team. Treating only one usually leaves the other to pull you back.
Residential dual diagnosis programs include psychiatric care and medication management alongside addiction therapy.
What to expect
- Private or semi-private rooms in many programs
- Therapies such as CBT, DBT and trauma-focused care
- Clinicians trained in both addiction and mental health
- Ongoing support after discharge
Before you choose dual diagnosis treatment
When mental health symptoms are part of the picture, ask programs near Universal City who does the psychiatric evaluation and how soon, and who will manage psychiatric medication after discharge.
What to ask a program

Frequently asked questions
What should I bring to residential rehab?
Bring a photo ID, insurance card, a list of current medications, comfortable clothing for about a week and basic toiletries. Most programs share a packing list and restrict items like alcohol-based products and outside medications.
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.
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.
