There are 3 separate types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who require assistance for a mental disorder may want an outpatient option because of personal obligations or due to the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Many people can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health care with full discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health programs are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Williamsport. The intensity of outpatient mental health care 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 evaluation of the person's medical history, both mental and physical, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual process, and clinicians and physicians will design a plan of care that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client requiring treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug problem, many outpatient mental health facilities are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
