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

There are 3 separate kinds of mental health treatment, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who may need help for a mental problem may want an outpatient approach because of personal obligations or perhaps because of the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Most clients can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health care with full discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health centers are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Westover. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from facility to facility, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health center 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 procedure, and clinicians and physicians will come up with a course of care that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the person needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug addiction, most outpatient mental health centers are prepared to handle this dual diagnosis.
