There are three separate kinds of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who may need help for a mental issue may desire an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or due to the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Most clients can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with complete discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health centers are either based in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Wellington. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from program to program, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health program will conduct a full evaluation of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard process, and clinicians and doctors will design a course of care that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the individual requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug addiction, many outpatient mental health facilities are prepared to handle such a dual diagnosis.
