Mental health and substance use together
Depression, anxiety and trauma often show up alongside substance use, and SAMHSA data show higher rates of mental illness among lesbian, gay and bisexual adults. Treating both at once usually works better than treating them separately.
If that sounds familiar, look at LGBTQ dual diagnosis treatment.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?
Each listed facility told SAMHSA's national treatment survey that it offers a program or group specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer clients. It's self-reported, so ask the program how the group works and how often it meets.
Are these rehabs only for gay men?
No. They report programming for LGBTQ clients and for adult men, but most serve a mixed population. Ask each one how its groups are organized.

The nearest listed program is Khepera House, about 26 miles from Santa Barbara. Programs on this page are residential or hospital programs that report an LGBTQ program or group and a program for adult men.
