Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Thorndike, MA.

There are 3 different kinds of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who need assistance for a mental disorder might desire an outpatient option because of personal obligations or perhaps because of the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their problem. Many people can still have a normal work or school day and get outpatient mental health treatment with full privacy and discretion.

Outpatient mental health facilities are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Thorndike. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can be different from place to place, but can range from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health center will first do a full evaluation of the client's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will come up with a plan of care that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the person needing care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug addiction, many outpatient mental health facilities are ready to treat such a dual diagnosis.
