Mental health concerns can come in varying intensities with a range of symptoms. A common thread among mental health conditions is that they impair day-to-day functioning. A Mission For Michael (AMFM) is a leading mental health treatment provider that offers comprehensive and inclusive treatment programs in California, Washington, and Virginia for those experiencing the daily challenges of mental health conditions.
We treat an assortment of mental health disorders, including dual diagnosis conditions. Our use of evidence-based and specialized treatments provides a custom treatment experience that lets you build the foundation for a lasting recovery. Our goal is to help you develop the skills you need to obtain and maintain optimal psychological wellness. Outpatient mental health treatment can provide you with a continuation of the support you receive in residential treatment programs. Let’s take a few minutes to discuss the benefits of outpatient psychiatric care and its role in your recovery.
Outpatient mental health therapy programs can provide you with flexible and structured care that aligns with your availability and your mental health needs. Outpatient counseling centers often offer a range of treatment services including group and individual therapy, educational sessions, and psychiatric medication management.
Outpatient therapy programs are ideal for those experiencing mild to moderate symptoms, and those who have completed higher levels of care. These programs are not equipped to provide around-the-clock support, which means that it is important that you’re able to cope with your mental health symptoms outside mental health treatment. Outpatient treatment programs are focused on helping you maintain an emotional balance, and successfully navigate the challenges that come up for you. To learn if an outpatient treatment program is right for you, contact A Mission For Michael for your confidential and free assessment.
Outpatient programs do provide therapy and counseling services. Outpatient mental health assessments are used to determine which therapies and counseling approaches are the best fit for the symptoms present. Common services include individual, group, and family therapy. These can address emotional, behavioral, and psychological concerns associated with mental health disorders.
Outpatient counseling is flexible, meaning that it varies in intensity, duration, and frequency. Therapy sessions can occur once or twice per week, and may include both individual and group therapy sessions. Outpatient programs are often recommended for those who complete inpatient or residential treatment programs so that they can continue building on the progress that was made.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), participation in mental health treatment increased from 2019 to 2021, with women seeking treatment more often than men. Outpatient treatment programs remain a popular option, with studies indicating a 78% success rate in long-term follow-ups for those receiving outpatient treatment.
Statistics show that of 11,647 mental health programs, 7,785 offered outpatient services in the United States. The Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) also reported that 80% of behavioral health treatment facilities provide outpatient care. States like Vermont, Massachusetts, and Maine rank highest in access to mental health treatment, while California and Virginia are ranked 30th and 37th, respectively, according to Mental Health America (MHA). Outpatient treatment is a great option for those who would like continued support at home after completing an inpatient or residential treatment program.
Yes! Outpatient mental health clinics provide comprehensive mental health treatment options for those who do not require inpatient psychiatric care. Outpatient clinics generally provide a range of services and utilize various evidence-based practices. This commonly includes group therapy, individual therapy, educational sessions, and psychiatric medication support.
Outpatient programs are flexible treatment options. This allows you to maintain your daily schedule including work, school, and other personal responsibilities. In many cases, outpatient treatment has a longer duration than inpatient care. You may find that your treatment schedule is modified over time to reflect the progress you have made. Your clinical team will monitor your mental health symptoms throughout your treatment to ensure you’re receiving the appropriate care. For personalized guidance on outpatient treatment, reach out to A Mission For Michael (AMFM). Our dedicated admission counselors are here to assist you in exploring the mental health treatment options that best align with your needs.
Outpatient mental health services are available to treat a range of mental health conditions. Behavioral health concerns are individualized and often complex. This means that the treatment interventions and approaches used often vary from person to person. Some of the common conditions treated in outpatient programs include, but are not limited to:
Depression and depressive disorders are characterized by a low mood, fatigue, hopelessness, and a loss of interest in enjoyable activities. Evidence-based outpatient treatment for depression includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychiatric medication management. Treatment plans focus on effectively managing mood symptoms and utilizing healthy coping skills to improve overall mental well-being.
Individualized outpatient treatment for anxiety disorders often includes cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based therapies, and psychiatric medication management. Outpatient treatment can be an effective treatment option for those who have mild to moderate symptoms. Treatment can focus on improving symptom management and improving overall mental wellness.
Outpatient treatment for bipolar disorder is ideal for those who are experiencing mild to moderate symptoms. This is generally not a recommended treatment option for those experiencing active manic and severe depressive symptoms. Outpatient therapy sessions can help individuals learn to manage mood symptoms, incorporate new coping skills, and find a balance in their psychological health.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a personalized mental health condition that occurs as a result of a traumatic experience. Holistic mental health care for PTSD can help individuals process their trauma and implement coping skills for intrusive symptoms. This can include flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance that affect your day-to-day life. Over time, treatment can help you regain control.
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is known for intensive mood swings, impulsivity, and interpersonal difficulties. Behavioral health outpatient services for BPD often include Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) which focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness skills, and interpersonal effectiveness. This can help you learn to manage their emotions as well as improve the health of their relationships.
Outpatient mental health resources and programming can provide valuable support for those living with schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders. Treatment often includes the combination of psychiatric medications and psychotherapy. With a focus on improving cognitive skills, outpatient treatment can help those living with these conditions maintain autonomy in their lives.
Mental health treatment programs can provide you with customized behavioral health treatment, providing you with mental well-being support. A Mission For Michael (AMFM) is dedicated to providing individualized care for those experiencing a range of mental health concerns including mood disorders, personality disorders, and more.

Health insurance typically provides insurance coverage for a range of outpatient mental health programs. Coverage does vary by insurance carrier and the specific plan that you have. Continue reading for a brief introduction to some examples of covered programs, though the list is not exhaustive.
Yes! Many outpatient mental health treatment centers provide integrated treatment for co-occurring disorders. This can include those living with comorbid mental health conditions, like substance use disorders and mental health conditions. Integrative care is important because comorbid conditions are complex, and often intertwined. Treating conditions simultaneously is the most effective approach.
Holistic mental health care for coexisting conditions can include individual therapy, group therapy, educational services, medication management services, or a combination of more than one approach. Treatment is tailored to individual needs and may be modified over time to ensure proper care is provided.
Dual-diagnosis treatment programs can provide integrated mental health services for those who are struggling with more than one mental health condition. Drugs and alcohol can be used to cope with various mental health symptoms, which can lead to the development of concurrent disorders. Examples of outpatient addiction counseling options include:
It is not uncommon for those living with depression and anxiety to also struggle with an Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). Alcohol may be used to cope with uncomfortable psychological symptoms, while some begin to struggle with anxiety and depression after struggling with an AUD. Treatment often includes a combination of therapy, counseling, and Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT).
Outpatient treatment programs also provide comprehensive care for those experiencing mental health conditions and co-occurring drug use disorders. Treatment for these conditions is based on the severity of your symptoms, and your overall mental well-being. Treatment commonly blends individual therapy, mental health support groups, psychoeducation, and Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT).
