When addiction and mental health conditions happen together, treating one without the other does not work. At The Bluffs in Sherrodsville, Ohio, we provide integrated, dual diagnosis care that brings addiction treatment and mental health services into a single plan. If you or a loved one needs help with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or another mental health concern alongside substance use, start with our overview of co-occurring disorder treatment.

It Starts With a Careful Assessment

On day one, our team completes a comprehensive evaluation that reviews medical history, substance use, and mental health symptoms. This assessment guides the initial level of care and sets measurable goals. We regularly reassess and adjust as symptoms change, which keeps treatment responsive and aligned with what you need most. Read more about our approach on About Us.

Integrated Therapies That Work Together

Your clinician coordinates evidence-based therapies that address both conditions at once. Plans often include cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, and skills-focused groups delivered by licensed professionals. Medication-assisted treatment can be added when appropriate to stabilize cravings so therapy can move forward. Explore our therapy mix and learn how medication-assisted treatment and Suboxone treatment support recovery.

Detox and Residential Care on One Campus

Many people begin with medical detox to manage withdrawal safely, then transition to structured residential treatment for stability and skills practice. Keeping detox and residential care connected reduces gaps in the plan and makes early progress more durable. See how we deliver residential treatment in Ohio in our inpatient program.

Specialized Help for Anxiety and Depression

Symptoms like panic, rumination, low motivation, and sleep disruption often drive substance use. Our program treats these patterns directly while you build new routines that support mood and sobriety. Learn how we coordinate care in our depression and addiction treatment resources and related co-occurring articles.

Family Involvement That Strengthens Recovery

Recovery affects the whole household. We invite loved ones into the process through our family therapy program and education that prepares everyone for life after discharge. Clear roles and communication reduce stress at home and lower relapse risk.

Veteran-Ready Care Through Your Six Recovery (Y6R)

For veterans and first responders, trauma and service culture shape recovery. Our Veterans Support Program and the expansion of Your Six Recovery (Y6R) at The Bluffs add peer connection and targeted trauma services to dual diagnosis care.

Admissions, Insurance, and Next Steps

Cost and logistics should not be barriers to treatment. Our admissions team verifies benefits quickly, explains coverage, and coordinates arrival. You can begin with a call or message on our contact page. If you are comparing options across Ohio, see how we welcome patients from communities statewide in our program overviews.
