There are three separate types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who may need help for a mental health issue may desire an outpatient option due to personal obligations or because of the possible tarnishing of their reputation associated with their problem. Most clients can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health care with 100% discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health centers are either found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in New London. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can be different from facility to facility, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health facility will do a full assessment of the client's medical history, both mental and physical, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will come up with a course of care that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol addiction, many outpatient mental health facilities are ready to treat this dual diagnosis.
