What do you do to support a family member who recognizes the need for rehabilitation and recovery, but doesn’t quite know how to proceed?
How do you answer when your loved one says to you, “I know I need help. I’m ready for change, but I don’t know where to begin”?
Even admitting the need for recovery is a huge step forward, but in another sense it’s just the beginning. The next task is to find a recovery program that meets the individual’s need, ideally through caring and compassionate dual diagnosis care.
So if you’re in the role of parent, spouse, caregiver, or simply concerned friend, part of your job is locating precisely this kind of treatment. We’re here to help you through the process.
WestBridge is dedicated in taking a dual diagnosis approach, which is advantageous in itself: It ensures that proper, holistic attention is paid not just to symptoms, but to the overall health, wellness and recovery of each person and family we serve.
But there are other reasons to celebrate the WestBridge approach:
- Dual diagnosis can be a difficult process, but WestBridge takes an evidence-based approach, allowing us to provide individualized treatments that are based on specific symptoms and clinical observations.
- Recovery is never a short-term thing; it requires a long-term commitment, which is something WestBridge understands.
- Recovery is something that requires commitment on an individual level, but it’s also something that demands the support of others. The support of friends and family members is foundational to success, and WestBridge is careful to take a family-inclusive treatment approach—allowing you to participate in the care of your friend or loved one.
- Additionally, WestBridge employs Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) and mentorship approaches to help participants develop the life skills they need for long-term health and recovery.
- In keeping with our marathon mentality, we offer a range of support services even after the initial inpatient program is completed—including career services, self-help programs, and more.
Do you have a friend or loved one who needs this level of treatment and care? The first step is to urge them to speak with a counselor, one-on-one, about the advantages of dual diagnosis treatment from WestBridge. Call today to make that happen!
