There are 3 separate kinds of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who may need help for a mental health issue might want an outpatient approach due to personal obligations or due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their disorder. Most clients can still have a normal work or school day and get outpatient mental health care with 100% discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health centers are usually found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Athens. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from program to program, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health center will do a full assessment of the individual's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will come up with a plan of care that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the client requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug problem, most outpatient mental health facilities are ready to treat such a dual diagnosis.
