There are three separate types of mental health care, including hospital inpatient, residential, and outpatient. Some individuals who require assistance for a mental health issue may want an outpatient option due to their responsibilities or due to the possible tarnishing of their reputation associated with their issue. Many clients can still have a normal school or work day and get outpatient mental health care with full discretion and privacy.
Outpatient mental health programs are usually based in private offices, hospitals or community health centers in Dallas. 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 individual's medical history, both mental and physical, including their illicit drug and prescription drug history. Psychological evaluation is also an usual procedure, and clinicians and physicians will design a plan of treatment that may include group therapy, marriage or couples counseling, family therapy, individual psychotherapy, etc. If the individual requiring care also has a co-occurring disorder such as a drug or alcohol problem, many outpatient mental health facilities are ready to treat such a dual diagnosis.
