Outpatient mental health treatment provides structured, clinically guided care while you continue living at home, working, or attending school. Instead of staying overnight, you come to scheduled appointments—typically once to a few times per week—for services like individual therapy, group therapy, family sessions, and (when appropriate) psychiatric evaluation and medication management. This flexible model supports real-life practice of coping skills between sessions and helps you build sustainable routines.

Insurance Can Help Cover Up to 100%
We work with most major insurance plans, specifically PPO & POS insurance policies which will help cover up to 100% of the costs associated with treatment.
Outpatient care is a strong fit if you’re experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma-related stress, bipolar disorder, OCD, ADHD, or other concerns that do not require 24/7 supervision. It’s also a step-down option after higher levels of care (inpatient, residential, PHP, or IOP), helping you maintain momentum and prevent relapse.
Outpatient treatment is effective because it pairs clinical support with real-world practice. You learn skills in session, apply them at home, work, or school, then refine them with your therapist—building confidence and resilience over time.

When you begin outpatient mental health treatment at Horizon Healing Center in Long Branch, your journey starts with an initial intake and assessment. During this first appointment, you’ll meet with a compassionate clinician who will take time to understand your history, challenges, and goals. Together, you’ll review your mental health background, medical history, and daily functioning, while discussing what you hope to achieve through therapy. You may also complete standardized questionnaires designed to help measure symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, or other concerns so your progress can be tracked over time.
Following the assessment, your therapist will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. This plan outlines the frequency and format of your sessions—whether you’ll participate in individual therapy, group therapy, or family therapy—and identifies the therapeutic approaches best suited for you. Techniques may include cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or mindfulness-based interventions. If needed, your treatment plan may also include psychiatric evaluation and medication management. Together, you and your clinician will establish clear goals and benchmarks to guide your progress and ensure ongoing adjustment as you move forward.
Throughout your time in outpatient care, progress is continuously monitored. You and your clinician will review goals, assess symptom changes, and adjust your treatment plan as needed. This ongoing feedback process ensures that your care remains dynamic and effective, meeting you where you are as you grow and heal. As you begin to reach your goals, aftercare planning becomes an essential focus. Your therapist will help you prepare for the next phase—whether that means reducing session frequency, transitioning to community-based support, or developing a maintenance plan to sustain your progress.
