Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Patterson, GA.

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

Outpatient mental health facilities are usually based in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Patterson. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from program to program, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health center will   conduct a full evaluation of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and physicians will design a course of care that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the client needing care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, most outpatient mental health centers are prepared to handle this dual diagnosis.
