There are three separate types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who need assistance for a mental health problem may want an outpatient option due to personal obligations or due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their disorder. Many people can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health care with complete privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health facilities are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Marietta. 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 center will do a complete assessment of the client's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will come up with a plan of care that can include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the person requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug addiction, most outpatient mental health programs are ready to treat this dual diagnosis.
