There are three separate types of mental health care, including residential, outpatient, and hospital inpatient. Some individuals who require assistance for a mental health disorder may desire an outpatient approach due to personal obligations or perhaps due to the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their issue. Most clients can still maintain a normal work or school day and receive outpatient mental health treatment with complete privacy and discretion.
Outpatient mental health facilities are either found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Clayton. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from facility to facility, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health program will do a full evaluation of the person's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will design a course 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 a drug or alcohol addiction, many outpatient mental health centers are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
