Co-Occurring Mental Health & Substance Use Disorders
Mental health conditions and substance use disorders often occur together. Some individuals may use drugs or alcohol to cope with emotional pain, anxiety, trauma, or depression. Others may find that substance use worsens existing mental health symptoms over time.
Sanford Behavioral Health provides integrated care for co-occurring disorders by addressing both mental health and substance use simultaneously.
Integrated treatment may help individuals:
- Identify underlying emotional triggers
- Develop healthier coping mechanisms
- Improve emotional regulation
- Reduce relapse risk
- Build a stronger recovery foundation
Treating both conditions together often leads to better long-term outcomes.
