What outpatient treatment means
Outpatient treatment is counseling for under 9 hours a week, often one or two sessions, while you keep your usual routine. It's also the usual step down after IOP or PHP. See IOP vs PHP vs outpatient care.
A sliding fee is set by your income and other factors. Ask the program what you'd pay a session or a day, and what proof of income to bring.
