There are three different types of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who need help for a mental health issue may desire an outpatient option due to their responsibilities or perhaps due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their issue. Most clients can still have a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health treatment with 100% privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health facilities are either found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Howard Beach. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from program to program, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health program will conduct a complete assessment of the individual's medical history, both mental and physical, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and medical staff 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 care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug addiction, many outpatient mental health facilities are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
