Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - St. Joseph, MO.

There are 3 different types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some individuals who may need assistance for a mental problem may desire an outpatient option due to personal obligations or   because of the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their disorder. Most clients can still have a normal work or school day and get outpatient mental health treatment with 100% privacy and discretion.

Outpatient mental health facilities are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in St. Joseph. 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   conduct a complete evaluation of the client's medical history, both physical and mental, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard process, and clinicians and physicians will come up with a plan of treatment that can include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the person requiring treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, most outpatient mental health programs are prepared to handle this dual diagnosis.
