These last 45 days have been some of the hardest and most healing times I’ve ever had arriving to lone star I was terrified ! Simply because getting treatment is a big deal I wasn’t sure of the company or community I would be throwing myself into but wow was it the best decision I’ve ever made. To begin the staff and nurses/psychiatrist were some of the most genuine people I’ve ever met it’s very rare you go to a mental health facility where the employees gentility care for the health of the clients and care deeply for their job. The employees themselves have been hands down the best part of this stay! They’ve allowed me to authentically express who I am while comforting me in ways that allowed me to be vulnerable with my faults which is such a big deal when it comes to healing! Secondly the facility itself is very nice and always clean and provided some of the best meals I’ve had thanks to the chef! The company’s leaders Jenifer and Brandon were the most open minded and helpful people ever they consistently listened to the clients and cared deeply about our input and ways the facility could be better! There was never a complaint of mine that went ignored which I am extremely grateful towards. If you’re having second thoughts on coming to lone star let me be the first to tell you JUST DO IT! This was by far the best treatment I’ve ever gotten and will hold this place very dearly to my heart ! Lone star became a home away from home and I will never forget the great hospitality and kindness lone star has provided me! They give you all the tools you need to be successful it’s just up to you to actually do the work! If I weren’t healed I’d happily do this treatment again but after just 1 stay I know I am ready to take on the world so to that I say thank you lonestar

Lonestar has shaped me as a person. Brandon and Jen are amazing directors and really know how to keep a safe environment! Monica my therapist has been one of the best therapists I’ve ever been with!! She really cares about her job and genuinely wants the best for her clients. Paige, Reagan, Trey, and Bree are the best techs u could possibly have! They love and care about the clients here and they have made me a better person for not only myself but my family. Bess is a great case manager but also an amazing human being. I love this place so much and I highly recommend Lonestar! If u need help come here PLEASE. Damiana and crystal are both super sweet nurses and I love them to DEATH they helped me in any way that they could and I appreciate them so much for being there for me at my worst times.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the team at Lonestar Mental Health. From the moment my son was admitted, I knew he was in a place where people genuinely cared about his well-being and recovery. A special thank you goes to Bess. She has been absolutely amazing throughout this entire journey. She consistently kept me informed about everything that was happening with my son, including updates on his medications, treatment progress, and overall well-being. Her communication, compassion, and professionalism gave me tremendous peace of mind during a very difficult time. The entire staff has been exceptional. They treated my son with kindness, respect, patience, and encouragement. They provided a variety of activities and therapeutic opportunities that helped him develop coping skills, build confidence, improve his mental health, and engage positively with others. It was wonderful to see him participating in activities that supported both his emotional growth and recovery. The team worked diligently to help my son reach the next level in his treatment and recovery journey. Their dedication, support, and commitment to his success made all the difference. They truly went above and beyond to ensure he had the tools and resources needed to move forward. As a parent, finding a facility that genuinely cares can be overwhelming, but I was so excited and grateful when I found Lonestar Mental Health. They exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend this program to any family looking for compassionate, professional, and effective mental health care for their loved one. Thank you, Bess, and thank you to the entire staff for the incredible work you do every day. You have made a lasting impact on my son’s life and on our family. ❤️

Cannot express how much they helped my son during his stay there. He was valued from the moment we entered to the time he was discharged, and thereafter. The help he received is invaluable and I could see the difference. Highly recommend.

Just left the facility. I had a great experience. Nursing staff was on point, i tried giving them hell and they just showed me nothing but love and support. Techs were all super cool and understanding, through every step of the way. Therapists were really good and it was super beneficial, and case manager was on point from start to finish. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place to go seeking professional help in a safe and homestyle environment. Chef was also amazing, great food everyday. Thank you (cussing was involved with my healing, and the occasional slur. They handled it very well. De escelation of high intensity situations were also on point, by all staff)

I had a relative who was admitted to this facility. I was very uncertain of how this was going to help her immediate mental episode. As soon as she entered, she was taken care of in such a personal and professional manner. They were all very compassionate and respectful to her and her mental state. I am extremely grateful !

Common ADHD Symptoms

Pay attention to the following signs if you suspect you or someone else may need ADHD support:

Inability to Stay Still

Restlessness, fidgeting, and constant distractions will burden the life of an individual with ADHD, especially when they do not know about their ADHD diagnosis yet.

Excessive Talking and Movement

Moving around and talking when a person with ADHD is nervous or excited is one of the most recognizable ADHD symptoms.

Interrupting Other People

Impatience and poor impulse control will result in constant interruptions - untreated ADHD is going to be frustrating for those who want to have a calm dialogue.

Lack of Concentration

Short attention spans are quite common in people struggling with ADHD - they cannot focus on a task at hand or memorize information needed for studies or work.

Mood Swings

Feeling happy one moment and feeling agitated the next - this happens frequently for no apparent reason, which is why it is often difficult to communicate with people who have ADHD.

Irritability

It is hard to predict the behavior of the individual with ADHD - if something they do not like happens, they may react with frustration and impatience, demonstrating their short temper.

How to Treat ADHD at Lonestar Mental Health?

Although we will choose ADHD therapy after the evaluation of the patient, here is a quick overview of treatment options you can expect at our mental health center:

Individual Counseling

Talk to a therapist about your concerns and troubles in private – open up to a mental health professional in a confidential setting and learn coping mechanisms to manage ADHD.

Group Therapy

Spend time with your peers who go through the same challenges in life and make new friends, especially if you have felt lonely and disconnected from other people in the past.

Family Counseling

If your family members need to learn how to help you build a fulfilling life with ADHD, they will be invited to join you in therapy.

Relaxation Techniques

Breathing exercises, meditation, yoga, and journaling are key relaxation practices you should implement to reduce the symptoms of ADHD.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

This type of therapy will be the answer for individuals who need to cope with disturbing thoughts that constantly bother them – instead, you will focus on positive visualizations.

Structure and Routine

Creating realistic schedules, sticking to routines and tasks you can handle, and staying on track with all your personal and professional obligations – these are the best ADHD management practices.

Benefits of Treatment at Lonestar Mental Health

For more than twelve years, we have helped numerous patients to decrease symptoms of ADHD and lead a balanced life.

We are committed to working with the patient and their family to provide a safe environment that will let the person thrive no matter how severe their symptoms are.

Upon learning more about the patient and their mental health issues, we will offer them a treatment plan suitable to help them in particular.

In our work we use diverse techniques and therapies that focus on the root of the matter and the symptom itself.

ADHD Treatment That Makes a Difference

ADHD should not be a problem in your everyday life – although it is impossible to fully heal this disorder, we can lessen its impact on the patient’s life and ensure their emotions and thoughts are under control. Reach out to us without delay and learn more about effective and efficient ADHD counseling we can vouch for.
