There are three different types of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who may need help for a mental health problem may desire an outpatient approach because of their responsibilities or perhaps because of the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their issue. Most clients can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with 100% privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health facilities are either found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Summerland. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from facility to facility, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health program will do a full evaluation of the individual's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard process, and clinicians and doctors will design a plan of treatment that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the individual needing care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, many outpatient mental health facilities are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
