Fort Worth Mental Health Centers

Mesa Springs treats mental health and addiction in Fort Worth, beginning every admission with an assessment by a qualified mental health professional rather than a fixed intake track. Alongside its general programming it runs Help for Heroes, a named outpatient service built for military personnel, veterans and first responders — a population whose treatment needs and confidentiality concerns differ enough that a general program often does not fit.

MHMR of Tarrant County is the county's community mental health provider, and most of what distinguishes it is reachable before anyone becomes a client. Its ICARE Call Center takes calls and texts on 800-866-2465, and a Mobile Crisis Outreach Team provides face-to-face crisis response 24 hours a day to children, adolescents and adults anywhere in Tarrant County — the team comes to the person rather than the other way round. Families expecting a child or raising one under five can reach Help Me Grow North Texas on 844-689-5437 for early support.
