Dual Diagnosis Treatment in Orange County

The Runway provides licensed dual diagnosis treatment in Santa Ana, accessible from across Orange County. When addiction and a mental health condition such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, or trauma occur together, treating only one rarely holds. Integrated care addresses both at once, with a clinical team coordinating support.

What dual diagnosis means

A dual diagnosis, or co-occurring disorder, is when a substance use condition and a mental health condition happen together. Treating them side by side gives recovery a stronger foundation than addressing either alone.

Integrated, whole-person care

Our team coordinates addiction treatment and mental health support together, so the two plans reinforce each other. Care is built around your history, not a one-size-fits-all template.

From stabilization to aftercare

Care often begins with stabilization, continues through residential treatment and therapy, and moves into aftercare planning where you master the behaviors and tools that support both recovery and mental health over time.

For families

Families usually make the first call. You do not need every answer beforehand. Our confidential admissions team can help you understand options and possible next steps for someone you love, even before they are ready to talk.

Insurance and cost

Treatment is often more accessible than people expect. The Runway is in network with Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield of California, MHN, and TRICARE. Verifying your benefits is the simplest way to understand what may apply to your situation.
