Nearby cities to compare

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.

Safety in detox

Ask how the program handles room assignments and whether you can keep taking prescribed medications, including hormones, during detox. You shouldn't have to choose between safe withdrawal and being respected.
