MUCH: Depending on the type of mental illness and one's ability to participate, there are various psychotherapies -- individual and group. Some is insight oriented, some cognitive, and some basically supportive in nature. There are halfway houses for people who need supervised living, where they can also practice interacting. There are supervised work situations too. All can work together cohesively.
