Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Mental health and addiction are deeply connected, and healing one often depends on treating the other. At New Wave in Salisbury, MA, we treat anxiety, depression, trauma, and more, alongside substance use, with whole-person care.
Mental Health and Recovery
Mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and PTSD are common, treatable, and nothing to be ashamed of. For many people, they are also tightly woven with substance use, each one feeding the other. Anxiety or depression can drive someone toward a substance for relief, and that substance, in turn, deepens the underlying condition.
This connection is why treating mental health and addiction together, as a dual diagnosis, matters so much. At New Wave, we never treat one and ignore the other. We treat the whole person.
How We Treat Dual Diagnosis in Massachusetts
Evidence-based therapy and daily holistic care, tailored to you.
Our approach combines proven therapies like CBT and DBT, which help you understand and reshape difficult thoughts and emotions, with holistic practices like mindfulness, yoga, and art therapy that calm the nervous system and restore balance. Medication management is available when it is helpful, always as part of a coordinated plan.
Most importantly, you work with the same therapist over time, someone who knows your full story. When substance use is also present, we treat both together, because lasting recovery depends on healing the whole person, not just one piece.
Your Path Through Treatment
We meet you at the right level of care and adjust as you grow stronger, with the same therapist throughout and holistic healing every day.

Care that feels different
We were founded by people in long-term recovery, so the way we treat you comes from having been where you are. That shows up in everything we do.
Founded by people in recovery
When you call New Wave, you talk to someone who has walked this path, not a call center. This is personal for us.
The same therapist throughout
You keep your private therapist as you move between levels of care, so your progress is never interrupted and you never start over.
Holistic care, every day
Reiki, yoga, sound healing, and mindfulness are woven into daily treatment alongside evidence-based therapy, not offered once in a while.
