What is Outpatient Therapy?

Outpatient programs provide treatment for individuals struggling with mental health disorders. These programs allow patients to receive care while continuing to live at home and maintain responsibilities like work or school. Outpatient rehab offers various services, including individual and group counseling, medication management, and support for co-occurring mental health disorders. The flexibility of outpatient treatment makes it an accessible option for those unable to attend inpatient or residential programs.

Our Outpatient Mental Health Program Approach

Our outpatient program at Crest Mental Health provides flexible care for patients seeking to manage mental health struggles, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and others, while maintaining their normal lifestyles and daily schedules. Outpatient programs for mental health are suitable for individuals with mild to moderate mental health conditions and symptoms who have already received residential or inpatient treatment or are stable enough to maintain their independence.

Program Structure

Individuals in outpatient mental health treatment at Crest Mental Health continue to handle everyday responsibilities while engaging in various therapies, educational sessions, and mental health services. An outpatient mental health program is the least intensive program option, so it is recommended for those who have a strong support system at home and feel confident in their ability to maintain their well-being outside of treatment.

While outpatient mental health treatment has benefits, individuals experiencing a mental health crisis, such as suicidal thoughts or severe acute symptoms, may not receive a high enough level of care in an outpatient setting. A day treatment program or residential program at a hospital or treatment center is preferable for severe or emergency mental health symptoms.

Initial Assessment

Upon enrollment in our outpatient program, clients will have an initial assessment with our multidisciplinary team of specialists to evaluate their mental and overall health. Clients will discuss their experiences with current and past mental health issues, as well as prior diagnoses, as this information is crucial in tailoring a treatment plan to comprehensively address the root causes of each individual's unique mental health challenges. This assessment will ensure the program aligns with ideal treatment outcomes, and clients will understand what their program services will entail.

Treatment Approach

Outpatient treatment at Crest Mental Health is both flexible and structured. Our goal-oriented approach facilitates long-term recovery and wellness through evidence-based therapeutic techniques, skill development, and tailored services. Our outpatient treatment sessions consist of individual therapy, group therapy, medication management, patient education, crisis support, and aftercare planning. Our programs aim to treat each individual as a whole, ensuring that all aspects contributing to their current challenges are addressed.

Our holistic approach ensures that clients can continue to improve their mental health while maintaining their daily lives and improving upon long-term recovery objectives.

These programs are designed for those with milder or more stable mental health conditions, or for those who have completed intensive care but still need ongoing services and support.

Our outpatient program provides flexible care for patients seeking to manage mental health struggles, such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and others, while maintaining their normal lifestyles and daily schedules.
