Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Whittemore, IA.

There are three different types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some people who need assistance for a mental disorder might want an outpatient approach due to their responsibilities or perhaps because of the stigma they'd like to avoid associated with their issue. Many people can still have a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with full discretion and privacy.

Outpatient mental health programs are either based in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Whittemore. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from program to program, but can range from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health program will first conduct a complete assessment of the individual's medical history, both physical and mental, which includes their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological evaluation is also a standard process, and clinicians and physicians will design a course of care that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the client needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug problem, many outpatient mental health facilities are ready to treat this dual diagnosis.
