There are 3 separate types of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who may need help for a mental disorder may desire an outpatient option due to personal obligations or because of the possible tarnishing of their reputation associated with their problem. Many clients can still have a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health treatment with full discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health centers are usually found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Alpine. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can be different from place to place, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health program will conduct a full assessment of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and doctors will design a plan of care 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 or alcohol addiction, many outpatient mental health centers are prepared to handle this dual diagnosis.
