Why Should Behavioral and Mental Health Treatment Be Teen-Focused?
Teens often share that something in life “isn’t fair,” and most adults are quick to brush this off, but when it comes to their medical, emotional, and mental health, teens are right!
Today’s teen culture is nothing like it was 40, 30, or even 10 years ago. So why should their mental and behavioral healthcare be the same? Why are providers pursuing standard or adult-level treatment plans without targeted support for the modern teen experience?
The reality is, it’s time to change the industry standard. And that’s what we’ve set out to accomplish at BasePoint Academy.
We’re committed to going against the status quo of adolescent treatment to facilitate positive and lasting patient outcomes. We’re dedicated to providing patient-centered and holistic care that sets our teens up for a lifetime of successes, stabilization, and resiliency.
At BPA, we promise to treat each teen with respect and compassion while providing a safe and healing environment that allows teens to truly be seen, heard, and supported. And our Resiliency Program is about equipping teens with strategic skills to establish lasting change through an innovative treatment approach.
To achieve the best possible patient outcomes, we’re proud to offer a myriad of evidence-based
therapeutic modalities.

Patient Success Is How We Measure Our Success
Navigating substance use and mental health challenges can be a difficult time for families and patients. Our clinical and teenage psychiatric teams in Dallas are committed to working diligently with each patient to improve their self-confidence, self-image, and self-esteem while equipping them with valuable skills and tools to overcome adversity and behavioral challenges.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps patients make the connection between negative thoughts and the subsequent undesirable behavior. Together, we’ll identify the negative thought pattern and learn how to thereby modify the behavior.

Mindfulness equips teen patients to regulate their internal attention in order to manage psychological symptoms and emotional responses such as stress, depression, and anxiety.
Our psychiatric providers work with teens and families to manage medication dosage, symptom awareness, and efficacy.
The principle is to engage the patient in a new or neutral activity while helping them address internal processes and personal habits through experiential therapy.
