There are 3 different kinds of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who need help for a mental health problem might want an outpatient approach due to personal obligations or due to the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their problem. Many people can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health treatment with full discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health centers are either found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Suffern. 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 center will first do a full assessment of the person'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 come up with a course of care that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, many outpatient mental health centers are prepared to handle this dual diagnosis.
