Dual diagnosis treatment
Addiction and mental health don't exist in silos
That's why our dual diagnosis treatment is designed to address both — together.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety and alcohol, depression and opioids, or trauma and cannabis use, our integrated care model treats the whole person. We help you heal the roots, not just the symptoms.

What is dual diagnosis?
More common than many people realize
Dual diagnosis refers to having both a mental health disorder and a substance use disorder at the same time. Common combinations include:
- Depression and alcohol misuse
- Anxiety and benzodiazepine dependence
- PTSD and opioid addiction
- Bipolar disorder and stimulant use
- ADHD and cannabis misuse
Too often, people with co-occurring disorders receive fragmented care — mental health in one place, addiction care in another. At Valiant, we provide one team, one plan and one path forward.
Why we treat both together
You're not broken — you're layered.
Mental health challenges often fuel substance use, and vice versa. If only one issue is addressed, the other remains unresolved — and relapse becomes more likely. That's why we integrate care for both conditions from the very beginning.
- Coordinated treatment planning
- Clinicians trained in addiction and mental health
- Therapy that explores the full picture, not just symptoms
A trauma-informed approach
Healing without being re-traumatized
Many people with co-occurring disorders have histories of emotional or psychological trauma. We create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can rebuild stability and trust. Through EMDR, CBT, DBT and mindfulness, you'll:
- Understand the emotional roots of substance use
- Learn to regulate intense thoughts and feelings
- Begin healing without being re-traumatized
- Develop coping tools that don't rely on substances
