Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Palm Desert, CA.

There are 3 separate types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who need help for a mental issue might want an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or   because of the possible tarnishing of their reputation associated with their problem. Most people can still have a normal work or school day and get outpatient mental health treatment with complete privacy and discretion.

Outpatient mental health centers are either found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Palm Desert. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can be different from center to center, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health center will first do a complete assessment of the individual's medical history, both mental and physical, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and doctors will design a course of care that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug problem, many outpatient mental health programs are ready to treat this dual diagnosis.
