There are three different types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who require assistance for a mental disorder may desire an outpatient approach due to personal obligations or due to the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Most people can still maintain a normal work or school day and get outpatient mental health treatment with 100% privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health facilities are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Ithaca. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from place to place, but can range from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health facility will conduct a full assessment of the client's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also an usual process, and clinicians and physicians will design a plan of treatment that can include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the individual requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol addiction, most outpatient mental health centers are prepared to handle this dual diagnosis.
