There are three separate types of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who require assistance for a mental disorder may desire an outpatient approach due to their responsibilities or because of the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their disorder. Most people can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with complete privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health programs are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Elburn. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from center to center, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health program will do a complete assessment of the client's medical history, both mental and physical, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and doctors will come up with a plan of treatment that can 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 addiction, most outpatient mental health programs are ready to handle this dual diagnosis.
