Mental Health Screening in Substance Use Treatment
Mental health screening plays a critical role in substance use treatment, as co-occurring mental disorders are prevalent among individuals with addiction. Conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder often fuel substance abuse or arise as a consequence of it. Screening tools, including questionnaires and structured interviews, help clinicians identify underlying psychiatric conditions. Early detection enables integrated care, ensuring that both addiction and mental health issues are addressed simultaneously. Comprehensive screening not only improves treatment outcomes but also reduces relapse risks. Incorporating routine mental health assessments into addiction programs fosters a more holistic and patient-centered approach to recovery.
