How does outpatient treatment at our Atlanta clinic compare to inpatient hospitalization treatment?

By Lindsay Howick

The main difference between inpatient hospitalization and outpatient treatment is the treatment setting. Outpatient mental health services provide a good option for adolescents, teens, and young adults whose needs can be met by visiting a therapist in their local Atlanta-area neighborhood while living at home and maintaining their daily routine. Inpatient hospitalization treatment is a good option for those who need to leave their home and receive dedicated 24-hour care in a hospital setting to overcome mental health issues.
