Drug detoxification and medically managed withdrawal can be a safe and effective way to begin your recovery from substance abuse issues.
At Evoke Wellness in Cohasset, we specialize in dual diagnosis treatment — a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to helping individuals who struggle with both substance use and mental health disorders. These conditions, when they occur together, are referred to as co-occurring disorders.
Whether someone is living with anxiety and abusing alcohol to cope, or battling depression while managing an opioid addiction, we understand the complex relationship between these two conditions. Our dual diagnosis program treats both the addiction and the mental health condition simultaneously, ensuring that neither goes unaddressed.
A dual diagnosis occurs when someone experiences both a substance use disorder (SUD) and a mental health disorder at the same time. This is more common than many people realize. In fact, many individuals who struggle with addiction also face underlying psychological conditions like depression, PTSD, or anxiety.
In some cases, substance use may begin as an attempt to manage mental health symptoms. In others, prolonged drug or alcohol use may lead to the development of psychiatric conditions. Either way, both conditions must be treated together for lasting recovery.
Many individuals with untreated mental health conditions turn to substances as a way to cope with overwhelming thoughts, emotions, or symptoms. While these substances may offer temporary relief, they often lead to increased psychological distress and a cycle of dependence.
At Evoke Wellness, we recognize that true healing requires addressing both the substance use and the underlying mental health condition. Our dual diagnosis program provides an integrated approach to treatment, helping clients better understand the relationship between their symptoms and equipping them with healthier, long-term strategies for recovery.
Co-occurring disorders are deeply intertwined. When one condition is ignored, the other often worsens. For example, someone who drinks to manage anxiety may find that alcohol increases anxiety over time, making both conditions harder to treat.
At Evoke Cohasset, we use an integrated approach. Our dual diagnosis program includes:
We help each client understand how their symptoms are connected and give them the tools to build a healthier, more stable life.
The most effective dual diagnosis treatment plans are personalized and grounded in evidence-based care. At Evoke Wellness in Cohasset, every client is assigned a licensed psychiatrist and clinical team to oversee their care.
CBT is a core element of our program. It helps clients recognize and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, understand emotional triggers, and develop coping skills for both addiction and mental health symptoms.
When appropriate, psychiatric medications can help stabilize mood, reduce intrusive symptoms, and support overall emotional well-being. Medication is always optional, and clients are encouraged to make informed choices about their care.
We also offer group and experiential therapies that support whole-person healing, including:
