Epiphany Dual Diagnosis Treatment in New Jersey
What is Dual Diagnosis?
Dual diagnosis is the term for living with the effects of one or more mental health conditions, at the same time as one or more substance use disorders. This could mean living with anxiety until nightly drinking turns into daily drinking, or pain pills that are used to offset the lows of depression. In short, it means that one issue exacerbates the other, or masks it from detection, and treating them separately is only a temporary solution. If this sounds like you or someone you care about, finding dual diagnosis treatment centers in New Jersey should be a natural next move.
At Epiphany Wellness’ program, we treat the whole picture, the whole individual, with dual diagnosis treatment in NJ. During the intake phase, our team screens for a wide range of mood disorders, trauma, ADHD, anxiety, personality concerns, and the full scope and history of drug and alcohol use. Then we build a single coordinated plant for the addiction treatment along with any co-occurring disorders, as well as medication management, relapse prevention, and ongoing aftercare.
The dual diagnosis treatment in NJ offered by Epiphany Wellness is a comprehensive, full-day program that spans from morning to afternoon, allowing you to return home and sleep in your own bed each evening. There will be an equal focus on symptom management, core therapy skills, improving communication, and developing coping skills. Since you go home each evening, it creates an ideal ongoing opportunity to test the coping tools learned during the day and report back the following treatment day.
Having a high level of integrated care substantially lowers the overall risk of relapse while improving your emotional stability in nearly all situations. These benefits can make a dramatic difference for you or your loved ones in starting a recovery that actually lasts.

Dual Diagnosis at Epiphany in New Jersey
When we say Epiphany Wellness provides integrated treatment, we mean that everything is seamlessly integrated. From your very first contact with the Epiphany Wellness team, we’ll begin gathering all the initial information we can about your symptoms, medications, substance use and addiction profiles, individual safety needs, and more.
Our Dual Diagnosis Program
We ensure that a multidisciplinary team, including an addiction specialist, psychiatrist, and primary therapist, reviews everything. They’ll collaborate with you to create a single plan to treat your co-occurring disorders in our leading dual diagnosis rehab. Your unique needs will be incorporated into your dual diagnosis program, ensuring you participate in effective treatment designed to facilitate long-term recovery.
One of the pillars to addressing your substance abuse treatment with co-occurring mental health disorders will be consistency in your treatment services. Your mornings will generally include a vitals check-in, symptom monitoring for both medication and withdrawals, and core groups for therapy. Morning therapy will focus on evidence-based modalities, such as holistic lifestyle interventions, cognitive behavioral therapy, wellness treatments, and dialectical behavior therapy. Afternoons will follow a track that includes individual counseling, relapse prevention education, and mindfulness or experiential support groups.
How Dual Diagnosis Works
An effective dual diagnosis treatment in NJ will follow an organized and flexible arrangement of treatment options that adapt to your needs. The process starts with a complete biopsychosocial assessment.
We’ll review your mental health history, substance use patterns, medications, medical issues, and even your personal needs for safety and accountability. This screening helps us identify depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and countless other mental health issues that we may need to craft interventions for.
Then, we focus on creating a single, integrated plan that encompasses mental illness and behavioral health, ensuring the CBT, DBT, and relapse prevention goals remain aligned. Each week, we’ll assess and measure your progress. If our data indicates obvious spikes in craving or changes in mood stability, the medication can be adjusted quickly. This way, when you’re ready to step down to a lower level of care, we can fully coordinate the move. Whether you’re prepared for inpatient, IOP, or traditional outpatient, we help you find the right treatment.
