Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Norwalk, IA.

There are three different types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who need help for a mental disorder might desire an outpatient option due to personal obligations or   because of the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their disorder. Most people can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with full discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health facilities are either found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Norwalk. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from place to place, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health program will first do a full evaluation of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual process, 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 needing care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug problem, most outpatient mental health facilities are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
