WHAT IS BREAKTHROUGH BY BASEPOINT?
BreakThrough by BasePoint offers individually tailored outpatient treatment plans to facilitate a smooth transition back into your everyday routine. Whether you’re transitioning from treatment like our program for adolescents or enrolling in your first program at BasePoint, our specialized approach ensures continuity of care and personalized support.
What Makes Our Program Great?
BreakThrough by BasePoint is our emerging adults program for 18- to 35-year-olds. We built this program because many people with anxiety or depression don’t seek treatment, and we know we can change this. We saw a need to bridge the gap for mental health treatment from adolescence to young adulthood; thus, BreakThrough by BasePoint was born.
Our Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) and Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHPs) allow patients to continue treatment while remaining present in their everyday life.

BasePoint's Promise To Patients and Their Families
The period between ages 18 and 35 is a time of significant transition, often bringing with it mental health challenges. Common disorders like depression, PTSD, and anxiety can complicate daily life. At BreakThrough by BasePoint, we are dedicated to supporting you in overcoming these obstacles, providing guidance for safe and dignified recovery.
We offer a serene, distraction-free environment where you can focus on healing. Our experienced professionals prioritize your safety and comfort, making it easier for you to embark on your recovery. However, if you need greater flexibility, BreakThrough by BasePoint also offers online programming to help you access the support you need. Read on to learn more about some of the conditions we treat remotely:
Online Treatment for Depression
Depression is more than just feeling sad. It is a mental health condition that influences the way you think, feel, and act. Different levels of severity of depression can dramatically affect your eating, energy, and sleeping patterns, your interest in everyday activities, and feelings of sadness or worthlessness.
Depression is one of the most common mental health conditions and maybe even more severe for young adults than older adults. A survey from the National Institute of Mental Health demonstrates that the prevalence of major depressive episodes in adults age 18 to 25 is 18.6%, roughly double the prevalence of those 26 to 49. Online treatment for depression connects you with licensed professionals from home, reducing barriers like stigma and travel and making consistent mental health support more accessible and effective.
Online Treatment for Bipolar Disorder
It is normal to experience a wide range of motions, but when the ups and downs of life are associated with periods of manic behavior and depressive mood, it may be bipolar disorder. Signs of bipolar disorder in young adults can be challenging to identify, as the condition sometimes presents as other mental health issues.
Its symptoms can overlap with those of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder, and emerging borderline personality disorder. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial since bipolar disorder does not get better on its own. Left untreated, this condition can lead to devastating results. BreakThrough by BasePoint offers flexible online treatment for bipolar disorder, providing expert care, mood management support, and consistent therapy you can access from the comfort of home.
Online Treatment for Anxiety Disorders (e.g., Social and Generalized)
Many anxiety disorders are characterized by the object or situation that induces the anxiety. Anxiety disorders interfere with your job performance, relationships, and schooling. These disorders include panic disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), specific phobias, social anxiety disorder, and separation anxiety disorder; Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) was previously classified as an anxiety disorder, though it now belongs to its own category.
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, about 19.1% of U.S. adults had an anxiety disorder in the past year. Anxiety is a common emotion that is crucial to survival. However, when anxiety leads to constant worrying, digestive issues, insomnia, and a reduced ability to function, it becomes a mental health condition. BreakThrough by BasePoint provides accessible online treatment for anxiety disorders, connecting you with expert therapists for personalized, flexible care from home.
Online Treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is generally triggered by acute or chronic traumatic events such as the loss of a loved one, bullying, chronic abuse, an accident, or witnessing a life-threatening situation. It is normal to need time to get past a traumatic event. However, with PTSD, you continue to have flashbacks, dreams, or upsetting thoughts about your experiences.
The symptoms of PTSD can appear immediately but are usually noticed within the first 6 months after the experience. They can include avoidance of a situation that triggers memories, flashbacks, and nightmares or being always tense and on guard. If you have PTSD, you may also experience co-occurring mental health conditions, such as anxiety and depression, which may lead to substance use disorders, problems eating and sleeping, or increased anger and irritability. BreakThrough by BasePoint delivers trauma-focused PTSD therapy online, using evidence-based techniques like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in a safe, private environment.
Online Treatment for Trauma
Trauma can occur during and immediately after you experience a highly distressing event. Some types of events are traumatic, such as a natural disaster, being assaulted, or experiencing a significant loss. Other types of situations do not appear traumatic at first, such as public embarrassment, a minor traffic accident, or changing schools.
During this period, symptoms associated with a traumatic response include being nervous or on edge, difficulty sleeping, panic attacks, flashbacks, depression, and anxiety. These symptoms can last up to 6 months. Through early online treatment, the board-certified mental health professionals at BasePoint can help limit the negative effects of trauma and reduce the potential that it develops into PTSD.
Online Treatment for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder that typically arises in childhood but lasts through adulthood. There are three types of ADHD, each with a unique set of symptoms that affect your behavior and ability to follow instructions. In some cases, ADHD may not have been diagnosed in childhood.
Symptoms of ADHD in can include trouble focusing, lack of organization and poor time management, trouble multitasking, restlessness, and mood swings. These problems can lead to significant challenges in college, social situations, and job performance. You may find it difficult to meet deadlines, control emotional outbursts, or be organized to get to events or meetings on time. BreakThrough by BasePoint’s structured online ADHD treatment combines behavioral coaching, medication management, and personalized strategies to improve focus and daily functioning.
Online Treatment for Psychiatric Disorders
The prevalence of psychiatric disorders in young adults rose in 2021: 48% reported struggling with their mental health, 39% reported using prescription medications and/or receiving counseling, and 36% reported having an unmet need for counseling. Some common psychiatric disorders include schizophrenia, OCD, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, personality disorders, and substance use disorders.
Adults continue to experience cognitive development through age 29, which is one reason they are more vulnerable to mental health conditions. Most people are familiar with the emotional turmoil that accompanies adolescence. The part of the brain that controls impulse control, organization, and planning continues to develop through the mid-20s. Identifying and treating psychiatric disorders is crucial for long-term well-being. BreakThrough by BasePoint treats personality disorders online through dialectical behavior therapy and other therapeutic techniques, helping you build emotional regulation, healthier relationships, and lasting coping skills.

Call: (972) 357-1749Check Your InsuranceDoes Insurance Cover Online Treatment
for Mental Health?
Yes, health insurance typically covers online mental health treatment. In 2010, the Affordable Care Act mandated that all health insurance policies offer coverage for essential healthcare services, including treatment for mental health conditions and substance use disorders. However, the extent of your insurance coverage for rehab is dictated by your policy.
Some policies limit how mental health treatment can be administered; others may limit the number of sessions allowed per incident, year, or lifetime. BreakThrough by BasePoint accepts plans from a variety of insurance providers in Texas, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Magellan, UnitedHealthcare, Optum, and Cigna.
The easiest way to identify your policy limits is to call (972) 357-1749 or contact us online. Our admission specialists will verify your insurance, estimate your out-of-pocket costs, and determine if prior authorization is required before you can begin treatment.
What Causes Mental Health Problems in Adults?
There isn’t just one cause for mental health problems in adults. It is likely that for many people, it’s a combination of complicated factors. The following are just a few of the identified causes that can trigger mental health problems:
- Early Life Experiences: Experiences during childhood can have a significant and lifelong effect on your mental health. These experiences include abuse, trauma, neglect, long-term physical health conditions, domestic violence, or being a witness to a traumatic event.
- Chemical Imbalances: The human brain is extremely complicated, and some research suggests brain chemistry may influence mental health problems. There is evidence that medication is effective in treating some symptoms, but they do not work the same for everyone.
- Trauma and Stress: Severe emotional stress or experiencing a traumatic event such as sexual abuse, loss of a loved one, or witnessing a life-altering event can significantly influence your mental health.
- Genetics: Some mental health conditions are more commonly found in people who have blood relatives with the same illness. While genetics can increase the risk, other factors must also be present to trigger most mental health conditions.
- Family and Peer Influences: Everyone can experience a traumatic event, but not everyone who experiences a traumatic event develops a mental health condition. Family and peer influences can protect you or increase your risk of developing a mental health condition like depression, anxiety, or an eating disorder.
- Coping Mechanisms: People with strong coping mechanisms and a network of supportive friends and family have a reduced risk of experiencing mental health conditions.
Levels of Mental Health Treatment for Adults
Partial Hospitalization Program:
The Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) at BreakThrough by BasePoint provides a highly structured environment for tackling mental health challenges. This intensive program includes individual therapy, group therapy, and medication management, all tailored to your needs. Our dedicated professionals work closely with you, fostering self-awareness, resilience, and the development of healthy coping mechanisms.
Intensive Outpatient Program:
Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) takes a flexible yet comprehensive approach to mental health treatment. It’s ideal if you’re transitioning from a PHP or require a more intensive level of care than traditional outpatient therapy provides. In this program, you’ll receive therapeutic support through group sessions, individual counseling, and psychiatric consultations while maintaining much of your daily routine.
Symptoms of Mental Health Disorders in Adults
The symptoms of mental health disorders in adults 18 to 35 can be exhibited slightly differently than in children, adolescents, or older adults. Below are some of the symptoms that can occur in a variety of conditions and how you may exhibit them. Although these are common symptoms, this is not an exhaustive list.
- Mood Changes: You may experience prolonged feelings of hopelessness or helplessness, ongoing sadness, empty mood, or excessive guilt. Mood changes include extreme swings from being ecstatic and happy to sad or depressed. You may be more irritable and get angry more easily.
- Changes in Sleep Patterns: Symptoms of a mental health condition can affect how you sleep, including being unable to go to sleep, falling asleep but waking up throughout the night, or sleeping excessively.
- Changes in Appetite and Weight: Symptoms of a mental health condition are often accompanied by changes in appetite, which are reflected by changes in your weight. However, these changes may be associated with an underlying medical condition if you are gaining or losing weight without eating more or less.
- Disordered Eating Habits: While mental health conditions can affect your appetite, they can also affect how you approach food. Disordered eating habits can include binge eating, anorexia, and bulimia. These symptoms are not driven by physical appetite but rather are symptoms of an eating disorder.
- Social Withdrawal: When experiencing symptoms of a mental health condition, it may feel easier to isolate yourself from friends and family and avoid social activities. If you experience social phobias, you may also withdraw from activities that cause increased stress and anxiety.
- Fatigue and Low Energy: Mental health conditions that trigger a depressed mood increase feelings of fatigue and make it difficult to complete daily tasks. You may feel persistently tired and unable to regain your normal energy level, even when you sleep enough hours at night.
- Difficulty Concentrating: Mental health conditions can make it difficult to focus on a specific task, such as work or school, reducing your performance. You may also find yourself becoming more forgetful.
- Loss of Interest: Activities that were once exciting and interesting to you no longer hold meaning. You feel apathetic or indifferent to most of what happens throughout the day, and your friends and family may have noticed this.
- Increased Anxiety: You may experience excessive worry and fear, panic attacks, or develop new fears of situations and or people.
- Increased Risky Behaviors: It may feel as if you’ve lost your normal level of concern for situations and places, leading you to act recklessly. You may make impulsive decisions and put yourself in situations that increase your risk of illness or injury.
- Relationship Problems: Mental health conditions can make it challenging to maintain a healthy relationship with family, friends, or partners. You may experience frequent conflicts and arguments that damage the relationship.
- Somatic and Physical Symptoms: You may experience unexplained physical aches and pains without an injury or illness. If you develop excessive thoughts, feelings, or behaviors related to these symptoms, they become somatic symptoms.
- Self-Harm: Self-harm behaviors include cutting, burning, or picking at wounds. You may engage in self-harm to feel pain when they are emotionally numb, to punish themselves, or to avoid or manage their feelings.
- Suicidal Thoughts: These can occur in several mental health conditions and can occur outside of a mental health diagnosis. Left untreated, it can have devastating results.
- Substance abuse: Mental health conditions can trigger an increased use of alcohol, drugs, or other substances that alter your mental, emotional, and physical state.
Does Mental Health Treatment Include Therapy?
Yes, mental health treatment includes therapy, whether you receive it in person or online. Therapy occurs in one-on-one settings, in groups, and with your family. This is the foundation of learning coping mechanisms and other strategies that reduce the symptoms of mental health conditions.
The type of talk therapy you experience at BreakThrough by BasePoint is based on your psychological examination and customized to meet your needs. Counseling helps you strengthen your self-confidence, build relationship skills, and change the behaviors that have held you back from success.
How Much Does Online Mental Health Treatment Cost?
The cost of online mental health treatment varies greatly depending on your customized treatment plan, the facility, and insurance coverage. Virtual therapy services without insurance can cost from $150 to $250 per session. More comprehensive programming, such as a PHP, averages $350 to $850 a week. Insurance coverage and other factors will influence your final out-of-pocket cost.
Although the Affordable Care Act mandates that all health insurance policies must cover mental health treatment, all plans have specific limitations, and some may not cover virtual treatment. Some limit the type of therapy you can receive, while others limit the number of sessions per incident, year, or lifetime. You can easily check your insurance coverage by calling BasePoint BreakThrough and speaking to one of our admission specialists.
Treatment Admissions Process at BreakThrough by BasePoint
Mental disorders are challenging, but you can receive help in a safe and structured environment at BreakThrough by BasePoint. When you call (972) 357-1749, our admission specialists can schedule a complimentary, same-day evaluation with a licensed clinician to determine the appropriate level of care for your condition.

Young Adult Mental Health Treatment Process and Schedule
On the first day of the young adult mental health treatment program, you will see a psychiatrist. Nearly everyone is involved in individual one-on-one therapy, which offers you the ability to discuss life’s challenges in a safe and supportive environment. Keep reading to learn more about what treatment looks like at BreakThrough by BasePoint.
Daily Schedule
Both our partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient program start at 9 a.m. We will begin each day with a mindfulness session to ensure you’re prepared for a successful day of treatment. Following our mindfulness hour, we move into group sessions. There will be weekly family sessions, and individual therapy is also available as prescribed.
Group Therapy
Group therapy is a highly effective form of counseling. Over time, you develop new skills and habits by participating in an interpersonal group process. Group therapy is a safe space in which you can address behavioral health concerns and get support from peers.
Family Therapy
Family therapy sessions are an important part of recovery. At BreakThrough by BasePoint, we believe the family deserves a safe space to work through challenges that have occurred and to develop strategies that prevent them from reoccurring. Family sessions help when there has been a struggle with grief, disruptive behavior, relationship problems, and self-esteem issues.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are two behavioral therapies that address a broad spectrum of behaviors using evidence-based techniques. CBT is a form of talk therapy that focuses on identifying negative mental patterns and the behaviors that follow. DBT is another form of talk therapy that helps you with emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
