Many people have other diagnoses in addition to alcohol, drug and gambling problems. Often one condition exacerbates another and neither will improve until they are looked at as part of a whole picture.
Some examples of these diagnoses are:
- Depression
- Bipolar Disorder
- Anxiety Disorder
- Sleep Disorders
- Chronic Pain
- Eating Disorders
- Sex Addiction
- Internet Addiction
- Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
At Perspective Counseling Services, all our clinical staff are trained in the care of other addictive and mental health disorders and take an integrative approach to treatment. If you have an alcohol problem and you are depressed, for example, it only makes sense to help you deal with both problems at the same time. During the clinical assessment, we will ask you questions about the extent of other problems such as these and what medications you are taking. Treatment planning will encompass setting goals and defining strategies to help you improve your life in all these areas. We will ask for your written permission to work closely with your other care providers and physicians to make sure we are working as a team to provide the best care possible for your particular situation.
Please call Perspectives Counseling Services at (520) 628-4500 to ask questions or make an appointment for a free assessment.
