The teenage years bring significant emotional and psychological challenges. Academic demands, peer pressure, social media, family transitions, and the biological changes of puberty can all contribute to or intensify mental health conditions in adolescents. Nearly one in five teens experiences a serious mental health condition, yet many never receive professional help.
Our teen mental health programs address a wide range of conditions that affect adolescents across Texas. Choose our team to prioritize your teen’s personal growth, safety, and mental health.
Anxiety is among the most common mental health conditions in teenagers. Whether your child struggles with generalized anxiety, social anxiety, or school-related stress, our clinicians use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based approaches to help them manage worry and regain a sense of control in their daily life.
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder can significantly affect a teen’s academic performance, relationships, and self-esteem. Our approach combines therapeutic support with practical skill-building to help teens manage symptoms and find stability.
Teens who have experienced abuse, neglect, loss, accidents, or other distressing events may carry the impact of trauma well beyond the event itself. Our programs include specialized trauma therapies, including EMDR when appropriate, to help adolescents process their experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
When sadness, hopelessness, or emotional numbness start to interfere with your teen’s ability to function at school, at home, or with friends, professional treatment can make a meaningful difference. Our therapists work closely with adolescents to identify root causes and build strategies for moving forward.
Some teens struggle with intense emotional reactions, impulsivity, self-harm urges, or difficulty managing anger. Through therapies like DBT and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we help adolescents develop emotional awareness and healthier responses to distress.
The mood swings associated with bipolar disorder can be especially disruptive during adolescence. Our clinicians provide structured care, including psychiatric monitoring and therapeutic support, to help stabilize mood episodes and develop long-term coping strategies.
We offer personalized treatment options for teens ages 12 to 17, so families can find the right level of care based on symptom severity, clinical needs, and daily responsibilities. Our team will guide you toward the appropriate program during your teen’s initial assessment, with 24/7 confidential support available whenever you need to reach us.
Our Virtual IOP for teens allows adolescents to receive structured, intensive therapy from the comfort of home while maintaining their school schedule and daily routine. Using a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, teens participate in individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy sessions several days per week – receiving the same quality of care available at our Martindale facility.
This program is a strong fit for teens whose symptoms are mild to moderate and who benefit from frequent therapeutic support without the need for full-time residential care. Virtual IOP is also ideal for families across Texas who may face transportation barriers or live outside the immediate area of our facility. Whether your teen is in Austin, Dallas, or anywhere else in the state, they can access our program with a private space and a reliable internet connection.
Our clinicians specialize in adolescent mental health and provide ongoing feedback, regular progress evaluations, and adjustments to your teen's treatment plan as they improve.
The role of family in a teen's recovery is significant. We encourage parents and caregivers to participate in family therapy sessions and stay actively involved throughout treatment.
Teens in our virtual program connect with peers their own age who face similar challenges, reducing isolation and building the social skills that are critical during adolescence.
Virtual IOP is flexible enough to let your teen continue attending school, participating in extracurricular activities, and maintaining their daily responsibilities while receiving care.
Our virtual program is cost-effective compared to residential care, allowing families to invest in their teen's mental well-being without financial strain. Insurance is accepted to help cover the cost of treatment.
Our team of therapists and counselors is equipped with the knowledge, skills, and tools to adapt to every teen's specific needs, providing guidance and ongoing feedback throughout treatment.
When academic stress, social conflict, and emotional turmoil become overwhelming, residential care gives your teen the space to step back, focus on healing, and rebuild their emotional foundation without the distractions of daily life.
From social skills to coping mechanisms, your teen will learn practical strategies to manage their condition. They will be taught how to navigate triggering situations, communicate more effectively, and regulate their emotions.
Although your teen will reside at our facility, they are not cut off from the people who care about them. Family members are invited to participate in therapy sessions and stay connected throughout the treatment process.
Teens with serious mental health conditions receive 24/7 care from trained professionals in a supportive environment with continuous monitoring.
If your teen has been struggling emotionally or you have noticed changes in their behavior that concern you, our facility is here to help. Lonestar Mental Health will support your family’s path toward recovery, peace, and stability.

In our Virtual IOP, teens attend therapy sessions several days per week through a secure telehealth platform while continuing to live at home and attend school. Residential treatment requires the teen to stay at our Martindale facility full-time for a set period, receiving round-the-clock care and supervision. The right choice depends on the severity of your teen’s symptoms and clinical recommendations from our team.
Yes. Our Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program is available to teens across Texas through a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform. All your teen needs is a private space and a reliable internet connection to participate.
Our clinical team will help determine the appropriate level of care during the initial assessment. Factors such as symptom severity, safety concerns, prior treatment history, and your teen’s daily functioning all inform this recommendation. Call us at (737) 325-8600 to get started.
Yes. We accept most major insurance plans and can help verify your coverage before your teen begins treatment. Contact our admissions team to confirm your benefits and discuss any questions about the cost of care.
Family involvement is a core part of our approach. Parents and caregivers participate in family therapy sessions, receive regular updates on their teen’s progress, and learn strategies to support recovery at home. We believe healing happens faster when families work together.
