Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Excelsior Springs, MO.

There are three separate kinds of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who may need help for a mental problem may desire an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or   due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their problem. Many people can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health treatment with complete discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health facilities are either found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Excelsior Springs. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can be different from facility to facility, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health center will first do 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 an usual procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will design a plan of care that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the individual 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.
