There are three different kinds of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who need assistance for a mental health disorder might desire an outpatient option because of personal obligations or because of the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Most clients can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health treatment with full privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health facilities are either based in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Manhattan. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from facility to facility, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health facility will first conduct a full evaluation of the client's medical history, both mental and physical, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and physicians will come up with a course of care that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the individual needing care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug addiction, most outpatient mental health programs are prepared to treat this dual diagnosis.
