Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Cornwall, NY.

There are three different types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who need assistance for a mental problem may want an outpatient option due to personal obligations or perhaps due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their problem. Most people can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health treatment with full discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health programs are either found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Cornwall. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from program to program, but can range from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health facility will first conduct a complete evaluation of the individual's medical history, both mental and physical, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and physicians will come up with a plan of care that can 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 problem, most outpatient mental health programs are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
