Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Atlanta, NE.

There are 3 different types of mental health treatment, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who require assistance for a mental issue may want an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or perhaps because of the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their disorder. Many people can still maintain a normal work or school day and get outpatient mental health care with full discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health programs are usually based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Atlanta. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from center to center, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health program will first do a full evaluation of the individual's medical history, both mental and physical, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard process, and clinicians and physicians will come up with a course of treatment that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the client requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, most outpatient mental health centers are ready to treat this dual diagnosis.
