There are 3 separate types of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who may need help for a mental issue might desire an outpatient option due to personal obligations or due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their issue. Many people can still have a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with 100% privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health programs are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Dunbar. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from facility to facility, but can range from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health center will do a complete evaluation of the individual's medical history, both mental and physical, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard 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 individual requiring treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug addiction, most outpatient mental health programs are prepared to treat this dual diagnosis.
