At Desert Willow Wellness, our dual diagnosis program provides integrated care for individuals recovering from addiction who also experience co-occurring mental health challenges. We guide and support people navigating both substance use and mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, or trauma-related concerns.
We embrace a holistic approach to recovery at our Palm Springs rehab treatment center, integrating mindfulness, meditation, and individualized therapy to support your unique healing process. Through guided meditation and mindfulness exercises, clients learn practical techniques to manage stress, improve focus, and build lasting emotional resilience. Our experienced clinicians provide evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to strengthen self-awareness, promote balance, and support sustainable recovery.

At Desert Willow Wellness, we understand that addiction and mental health are deeply connected. Our addiction treatment in Palm Springs includes comprehensive dual diagnosis care designed to address co-occurring mental health conditions with compassion and clinical precision.
Our therapists and counselors use evidence-based methods to nurture both emotional health and recovery stability. Our clinical team is trained to support individuals experiencing a variety of co-occurring conditions, helping clients achieve emotional balance and spiritual wellness as part of their addiction recovery journey.
Below are some of the most common co-occurring conditions we treat alongside substance use disorders:
Depression is one of the most common co-occurring mental health conditions for individuals struggling with addiction. It is marked by persistent sadness, low energy, and loss of motivation or joy.
Our dual diagnosis care in Palm Springs addresses both conditions together. Through individualized therapy and holistic care, clients regain purpose, motivation, and self- worth while healing emotional pain and strengthening their recovery from addiction and depression.
Many people turn to drugs or alcohol to cope with anxiety, creating a cycle that deepens both conditions. Studies show that nearly one in five individuals with a substance use disorder also lives with an anxiety disorder.
Whether you’re managing generalized anxiety, panic disorder, or phobias, our clinical team integrates mindfulness, relaxation techniques, and therapy to help ease worry and restore focus. Clients develop grounding skills and coping tools that calm anxious thoughts while reinforcing long-term recovery.
Between 40% and 70% of people with bipolar disorder experience substance use at some point in their lives. These overlapping conditions can make emotional balance difficult to maintain.
At Desert Willow Wellness, we provide integrated therapy for individuals recovering from addiction and managing bipolar symptoms. Our approach helps clients regulate mood changes, strengthen self-awareness, and progress toward emotional stability and lasting recovery.
Unresolved trauma and PTSD are common contributors to substance use and relapse. When trauma develops into post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), it can cause flashbacks, intrusive memories, emotional numbness, and isolation.
Our dual diagnosis treatment in Palm Springs uses trauma-informed therapy, mindfulness, and evidence-based practices to address painful memories safely. Through this process, clients rediscover peace, resilience, and freedom from both addiction and trauma-related symptoms.
As a leading residential rehab and detox center in Palm Springs, Desert Willow Wellness provides integrated mental health support within the framework of addiction treatment. Our program is designed for individuals recovering from substance use who also experience co- occurring emotional or psychological challenges.
Our environment has been thoughtfully designed to promote calm and comfort, allowing clients to focus fully on their healing. Surrounded by natural beauty and serene spaces, the setting encourages relaxation, reduces stress, and supports holistic recovery.
By fostering a supportive and judgment-free space, clients can explore emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and build resilience while addressing both addiction and co-occurring mental health symptoms.
Our team of professionals includes clinicians experienced in both addiction recovery and co- occurring mental health care. From therapists and counselors to consulting psychiatrists, every member of our staff brings expertise and empathy to the therapeutic process. Clients receive individualized attention rooted in evidence-based practice, ensuring that they feel seen, supported, and understood throughout their treatment.
Isolation can be one of the biggest barriers to recovery. That’s why we emphasize community through group therapy, peer support, and shared wellness activities. These connections foster belonging, accountability, and motivation—key elements for long-term healing and mental wellness.
At our boutique rehab facility, treatment is individualized to address addiction as the primary concern while supporting co-occurring mental health conditions. Each client receives a personalized treatment plan that reflects their specific goals and strengths.
By combining individual therapy, group sessions, and specialized interventions, we provide tools that help clients sustain recovery and emotional stability. Our holistic philosophy integrates practices that nurture the mind, body, and spirit, including mindfulness, yoga, nutrition, and creative therapies. These approaches complement traditional counseling and help build a foundation for long-term stability and wellness.
Our goal is to equip clients with lifelong skills for maintaining sobriety and mental well-being. We emphasize practical coping strategies, emotional resilience, and self-care techniques that extend far beyond treatment.
Our mission is to make comprehensive dual diagnosis treatment accessible to individuals on the path of addiction recovery. By addressing both substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions together, clients can build lasting stability and resilience.
