Border Region Behavioral Health Center

The Laredo location of Border Region Behavioral Health Center serves as a hub for comprehensive mental health care in South Texas. Offering specialized treatment for adults with severe mental illnesses such as schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders, the facility provides a wide range of services from medication management to crisis intervention. The center's integration of the Resiliency and Disease Management model ensures each individual receives empirically supported treatment designed to reduce symptoms and promote independence.

In addition to adult services, Border Region’s Laredo facility delivers targeted programming for youth through the CAPS initiative and Youth Empowerment Services Waiver. Children as young as three who struggle with emotional or behavioral disorders are given individualized, family-inclusive treatment options that aim to reduce disruptions in school and home environments. Moreover, the center supports individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, offering tailored interventions for those with autism spectrum disorders, cognitive impairments, and related neurological conditions. Through a combination of therapeutic services, parent education, and crisis response, Border Region empowers individuals and families on the path to mental wellness.
