There are three separate kinds of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who need assistance for a mental health problem might want an outpatient approach due to personal obligations or because of the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their disorder. Many clients can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with 100% privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health facilities are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Portland. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from center to center, but can range from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health facility will first do a full evaluation of the client's medical history, both mental and physical, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and doctors will design a course of care that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the client needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug addiction, many outpatient mental health centers are prepared to treat this dual diagnosis.
