Even today, mental health remains a critical issue that many people face silently. Coupled with the challenges of substance addiction, navigating life becomes even more daunting. Recognizing the intricate link between these struggles, Serenity Treatment Center of Louisiana offers its clients hope.
In a recent video, Carren Comeaux, a member of the center’s business development team, delves deep into the compassionate and comprehensive approach taken by this esteemed facility. Situated as a dual-diagnosis facility, Serenity addresses both psychiatric and mental health concerns alongside drug addiction and alcoholism. This holistic approach ensures that individuals receive the complete care they need to reclaim their lives.

” We’re a dual diagnosed facility, so psyche, mental health stuff, and drug addiction, alcoholism, they kind of go together. While they’re in group therapy, they’re going to learn how to deal with their anxiety, PTSD, all that stuff, in a healthy fashion. One thing that sets Serenity aside, the therapists. Almost every single one of them are in recovery themselves. I watch them with the clients. They treat the clients like family.
I can remember myself being a client and going into treatment. One of the worst feelings is whenever you’re sitting across from your therapist feeling like you’re lower than them, I have to look up to them. Here, at Serenity, the staff, they don’t make you feel that way. Almost every single person here, they’re in recovery. They can relate to the clients. The best part of my job is watching people come in completely broken, lost kids, husbands and wives, jobs. I watch them blossom into these beautiful flowers, get their jobs back, get their lives back, get the wife, their babies. It’s a beautiful thing to experience.
A dual-diagnosis facility recognizes that mental health issues and substance addiction often intertwine. At Serenity, clients undergo group therapy sessions where they learn to manage anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health challenges in a healthy manner. This therapeutic environment fosters not just recovery but also personal growth and development.”
