Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Santa Monica, CA.

There are three separate kinds of mental health treatment, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some individuals who may need help for a mental issue may desire an outpatient approach because of their responsibilities or   due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their problem. Many people can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health treatment with full privacy and discretion.

Outpatient mental health facilities are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Santa Monica. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from place to place, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health center will   conduct a complete assessment of the person's medical history, both mental and physical, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will come up with a course of treatment that can include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the individual requiring treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, many outpatient mental health centers are prepared to handle such a dual diagnosis.
