Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - District Heights, MD.

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

Outpatient mental health centers are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in District Heights. The intensity of outpatient mental health care 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   conduct a full assessment of the individual's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also an usual process, and clinicians and doctors will come up with a course 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 addiction, most outpatient mental health facilities are prepared to handle such a dual diagnosis.
