There are 3 different types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some individuals who require assistance for a mental health problem may want an outpatient approach because of personal obligations or because of the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their problem. Many people can still have a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with complete discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health centers are usually found in community health centers, private offices, or hospitals in Sterling. The intensity of outpatient mental health treatment can vary from place to place, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health program will do a full assessment of the individual's medical history, both mental and physical, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological testing is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and doctors will design a plan of treatment that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the client needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as an alcohol or drug addiction, most outpatient mental health facilities are ready to handle this dual diagnosis.
