Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Atlanta, ID.

There are three separate types of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who require assistance for a mental disorder may want an outpatient option due to personal obligations or   due to the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their problem. Most clients can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health treatment with complete 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 care can vary from center to center, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health center will first conduct a complete evaluation of the client'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 come up with a course of treatment that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the individual requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug problem, most outpatient mental health programs are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
