Denton County Mental Health Centers

Promises Dallas-Fort Worth is a residential addiction treatment center on Highland Drive in Lewisville, Texas, serving adults with drug and alcohol use disorders in the Dallas–Fort Worth area.

Carrus Behavioral Health is the children's and adolescent service of Carrus Health, operating across Texas and Oklahoma since 2008. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient care run for ages 8 to 17, with an inpatient hospital taking children from age 5 — the step up or down happens without changing provider. Accredited by The Joint Commission and licensed by Texas Health and Human Services.

Denton County MHMR Center is the county's mental health and intellectual and developmental disability authority, offering substance use treatment alongside adult and child mental health care as a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic. Around-the-clock access runs through a 24/7 crisis line (1-800-762-0157, or 988) — accredited by the American Association of Suicidology and operated in partnership with MHMR of Tarrant County — and a 24-hour psychiatric triage facility. Specialist services include COPSD for people with co-occurring psychiatric and substance use disorders, weekly groups, and vocational support. Fee schedules and the mental health rights handbook are published in Spanish as well as English. Medicaid, Medicare, private and military insurance, state funding and public assistance are accepted, with a published sliding scale.

Care Star Recovery and Wellness runs outpatient mental health and addiction treatment on an integrated model, with therapy, psychiatry and medication management under one roof rather than referred out to separate providers. Its partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and standard outpatient tracks are scheduled around work and family commitments, and the practice is in network with commercial insurers — its stated reason being to keep the cost barrier low enough that people start.

BreakThrough by BasePoint provides a partial hospitalization program in Frisco, Texas. Part of the BasePoint Academy network, the program offers faith-based treatment tracks including Catholic and Jewish options alongside standard therapeutic approaches. The teen-focused day treatment includes individual therapy, group counseling, psychiatric care, and academic support.

BasePoint Academy treats teenagers and adolescents for mental and behavioral health conditions, and is built around the practical obstacles that stop families starting: same-day assessments are offered by phone, and its programming is designed to be compatible with school, including academic support and a virtual option so treatment does not cost a term. The site serves families across the northern Dallas–Fort Worth area, in Collin and Denton counties.
