Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Wounded Knee, SD.

There are 3 separate kinds of mental health treatment, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who may need help for a mental issue may desire an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or   due to the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Most people can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with 100% privacy and discretion.

Outpatient mental health facilities are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Wounded Knee. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from place to place, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health facility will first conduct a complete assessment of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and doctors will design a course of treatment that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client needing care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug problem, many outpatient mental health centers are ready to handle this dual diagnosis.
