Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Burlingame, CA.

There are 3 different types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who require assistance for a mental disorder might want an outpatient option because of personal obligations or perhaps 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 get outpatient mental health care with complete discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health programs are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Burlingame. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from place to place, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health center will first do a full assessment of the client's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and physicians will design a plan of care that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the individual needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug addiction, many outpatient mental health centers are prepared to handle this dual diagnosis.
