Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Clayton, IL.

There are three separate kinds of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who may need assistance for a mental health disorder might want an outpatient option due to personal obligations or perhaps due to the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their problem. Most people can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health care with full privacy and discretion.

Outpatient mental health facilities are usually based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Clayton. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from program to program, but can range from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health facility will first conduct a full evaluation of the individual's medical history, both physical and mental, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological evaluation is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will come up with a plan of treatment that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the individual needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, most outpatient mental health facilities are ready to treat this dual diagnosis.
