New Jersey Depression Treatment: Dual Diagnosis Outpatient Program Announced

New Jersey substance abuse and mental health treatment center Relevance Recovery (866-245-1497) announces a dedicated Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) that offers modern advances in depression therapy patients can undergo while living at home.

Dual diagnosis is the term used for individuals with substance abuse and mental health disorder comorbidity. The condition currently affects over 7 million American adults. Relevance Recovery in Freeborn, NJ is one of the nation’s premier behavioral healthcare centers providing dual diagnosis treatment. For those prone to depression who are also pursuing sobriety, Relevance Recovery now offers an evidence-based Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) that helps patients stay connected to the treatments they need. It is designed for those who can’t uproot their lives to access treatment, and as a next-step option for those leaving inpatient care.

IOP rehab and mental health care can be considered the halfway point between a partial hospitalization program and regular outpatient care. The IOP program recently announced by Relevance Recovery offers an evidence-based treatment plan designed to help patients recover permanently from their depression and substance abuse disorder under the care of a psychiatrist and addictions specialist. The result is a reduction in the likelihood of relapse and better mental health resilience.

“Committing to treatment is a monumental step and arguably the best decision anyone struggling with depression and substance abuse can make,” says a spokesperson for Relevance Recovery. “We offer several therapeutic modalities and session frequencies specifically designed to set our patients up for success.”

A major contributing factor to the development of depression is an imbalance in dopamine and serotonin. While the two neurotransmitters produce different effects in the brain, dopamine is what plays a key role in the brain’s pleasure and reward centers.

People deficient in dopamine can get trapped in feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and low self-esteem which they can be tempted to soothe with drugs and/or alcohol. This habit often leads to addiction as the body becomes more reliant on the effects substances temporarily produce. As this cycle progresses, depressive symptoms can intensify, leading to serious health problems that can include brain damage.

The IOP program at Relevance Recovery offers individuals who require more attention than what a standard outpatient program provides a higher, more frequent level of guidance and support. The program costs less than an inpatient program but still offers three hours of therapy each day, three to five times per week. By addressing both the client’s depression and their addiction, the program can stop the progression of both, helping their clients live a happier, healthier life in sobriety.
