Integrated support for mental health and substance use challenges.

Living with both a mental health condition and a substance use disorder — known as dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorders — can be especially complex. You may feel like you’re stuck in a cycle that’s difficult to break. At The Summit Counseling Center, we offer specialized, compassionate counseling to help you address both issues together — not in isolation — so you can begin to heal, stabilize, and thrive.

Are You Struggling with Both Mental Health and Substance Use?

You may benefit from dual diagnosis counseling if you:

  • Use drugs or alcohol to cope with anxiety, depression, or trauma
  • Have tried treating one issue, but the other keeps interfering
  • Feel stuck in a cycle of relapse, crisis, or emotional instability
  • Struggle with motivation, mood swings, or low self-esteem
  • Want an integrated approach that treats the whole person
  • Need support for managing symptoms and maintaining sobriety

Our Approach

At The Summit, we use an integrated, individualized approach that addresses both mental health and substance use simultaneously. Our therapists are trained in dual diagnosis treatment. Your care may include the methods listed below.

We meet you where you are, providing support and tools to help you break the cycle and move forward with purpose.

You’re Not Alone

With integrated care, you can build momentum toward recovery and a steadier life.
