There are three separate kinds of mental health treatment, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some individuals who need assistance for a mental problem might desire an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or because of the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their disorder. Many people can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health treatment with full privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health programs are either found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in South Shore. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from center to center, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health center will do a complete evaluation of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and doctors will design a plan of treatment that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client needing care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug problem, many outpatient mental health centers are prepared to treat such a dual diagnosis.
