There are 3 different kinds of mental health treatment, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who need help for a mental health issue may want an outpatient approach due to personal obligations or perhaps due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation because of their disorder. Many people can still maintain a normal school or work day and receive outpatient mental health care with complete discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health centers are either found in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Lake George. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can vary from program to program, but can be from daily treatment to attendance a few days a week or more. An outpatient mental health center will first do a full assessment of the client's medical history, both physical and mental, including their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing is also a standard procedure, and clinicians and medical staff will design a plan of treatment that may include individual psychotherapy, group therapy, family therapy, marriage/couples counseling, etc. If the person needing treatment also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol addiction, many outpatient mental health centers are ready to treat such a dual diagnosis.
