Outpatient Mental Health Facility - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Louisville, TN.

There are three different types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some people who may need help for a mental disorder may want an outpatient option because of their responsibilities or perhaps due to the stigma they'd like to avoid because of their problem. Most people can still maintain 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 private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Louisville. The intensity of outpatient mental health care can be different from facility to facility, but can be from participation a few days a week to daily treatment. An outpatient mental health facility will first conduct a complete assessment of the client's medical history, both mental and physical, which includes their prescription drug and illicit drug history. Psychological testing 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 care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol addiction, many outpatient mental health programs are ready to handle such a dual diagnosis.
