There are three different kinds of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who need help for a mental health disorder may want an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or due to the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their issue. Most clients can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health treatment with full privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health centers are either based in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Mount Auburn. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from program to program, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health program will do a complete assessment of the individual's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also an usual process, and clinicians and physicians will design a course of treatment that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug addiction, most outpatient mental health centers are ready to handle this dual diagnosis.
