Addiction Psychiatry At Ventura Recovery Center
Comprehensive Psychiatric Care For Co-Occurring Mental Health And Substance Use Disorders
Addiction rarely exists on its own. Many individuals struggling with substance use also experience underlying mental health conditions that impact their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. At Ventura Recovery Center, our Addiction Psychiatry services provide specialized, integrated care for clients with co-occurring mental health disorders, helping them achieve stability, clarity, and long-term recovery. Our on-staff psychiatrist works closely with each client to diagnose, treat, and manage mental health concerns that may contribute to or result from addiction—ensuring a whole-person approach to healing.
The Importance Of Addiction Psychiatry In Recovery
Mental health plays a crucial role in addiction. Without addressing the psychological and emotional challenges beneath substance use, individuals may struggle to maintain sobriety. Addiction Psychiatry helps clients understand and manage the mental health conditions that can influence addiction, making recovery more sustainable. Our psychiatric care focuses on:
- Accurate assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of co-occurring disorders
- Stabilizing mood, anxiety, and cognitive function for clearer thinking
- Creating individualized medication management plans when appropriate
- Reducing symptoms that can trigger relapse
- Supporting emotional and psychological well-being
This integrated approach ensures that clients receive the medical and therapeutic support needed for lasting change.

Co-Occurring Disorders We Treat
Our psychiatrist specializes in treating mental health conditions commonly linked with addiction. These co-occurring disorders often affect how individuals cope with stress, trauma, and daily life—making comprehensive treatment essential. We provide care for conditions such as:
Anxiety Disorders
Persistent worry, panic, and fear can make recovery overwhelming. Treatment helps clients regulate anxiety and develop healthier coping strategies without turning to substances.
Depression
Feelings of hopelessness, sadness, or lack of motivation can disrupt daily functioning and fuel addiction. Psychiatric care helps stabilize mood and support emotional healing.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Unresolved trauma is a major contributor to substance use. We provide trauma-informed psychiatric support to reduce symptoms, improve emotional safety, and support the healing process.
Bipolar Disorder
Fluctuations between depressive and manic episodes can make sobriety difficult to maintain without proper treatment. Our psychiatrist helps clients achieve stability through personalized treatment plans.
What Clients Can Expect
Addiction Psychiatry sessions are designed to support each client’s unique needs, history, and treatment goals. Services may include:
- Comprehensive psychiatric evaluations
- Ongoing mental health monitoring and support
- Medication assessment and management when appropriate
- Collaboration with therapists and clinical team for integrated care
- Education for clients and families about mental health and recovery
Because treatment works best when the mind and body are supported together, our psychiatrist works as part of a cohesive clinical team to ensure aligned, holistic care.
A Collaborative, Whole-Person Approach To Healing
We believe recovery is strongest when mental health and addiction are treated simultaneously. Our psychiatrist collaborates with therapists, counselors, and medical staff to provide comprehensive care that addresses all aspects of a client’s well-being. This integrative model helps clients:
- Improve emotional regulation and stress management

- Maintain stability throughout treatment and beyond
- Reduce the risk of relapse associated with untreated mental health symptoms
