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

There are 3 different types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who require help for a mental problem may want an outpatient option due to personal obligations or   because of the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their disorder. Many clients can still have a normal work or school day and get outpatient mental health care with full privacy and discretion.

Outpatient mental health centers are either based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Pulaski. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can be different from facility to facility, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health facility will first do a complete assessment of the individual's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will design a course of care that can 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 an alcohol or drug addiction, most outpatient mental health programs are prepared to handle such a dual diagnosis.
