Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - New Bern, NC.

There are three different types of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who may need assistance for a mental disorder might want an outpatient approach due to their responsibilities or   because of the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their problem. Many clients can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health care with full discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health facilities are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in New Bern. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from place to place, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health program will first do a complete evaluation of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard process, and clinicians and medical staff will design a course of treatment that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the person needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, most outpatient mental health facilities are prepared to treat such a dual diagnosis.
