There are 3 different types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who require assistance for a mental health problem might desire an outpatient approach because of personal obligations or perhaps due to the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Most people can still maintain a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health care with 100% privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health programs are usually found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Charleston. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from center to center, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health facility will first do a complete assessment of the client's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also a standard process, and clinicians and medical staff will come up with a course of treatment that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client requiring treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug problem, many outpatient mental health centers are prepared to treat this dual diagnosis.
