There are three different types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who require assistance for a mental health problem might desire an outpatient approach due to personal obligations or due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation associated with their problem. Most clients can still have a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with 100% discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health programs are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Quitman. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from program to program, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health facility will first do a full evaluation of the individual's medical history, both mental and physical, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and doctors will come up with a plan of treatment that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the person requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug addiction, most outpatient mental health facilities are ready to treat this dual diagnosis.
