Patient Care

Expert Providers & Comprehensive Care

Our board-certified psychiatrists, psychologists, and advanced practice providers are respected by their peers as authorities on all types of psychiatric conditions, such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety disorders, and eating disorders. Our specialty treatments for all major psychiatric disorders are located together to better meet the needs of our patients at our award-winning Multispecialty Psychiatry Clinic.

Innovative Treatments & Collaborative Care

We have a strong regional reputation for treating the most complicated psychiatric conditions, incorporating state-of-the-art and experimental techniques, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation and magnetic seizure therapy, and implementing measurement-based care, a data-based advancement resulting in better care and improved safety. Our telehealth program allows patients to receive treatment in their homes, and our Psychiatry Medicine Integration team embeds behavioral specialists in non-psychiatric clinical settings to improve interdepartmental collaboration and patient outcomes. Our ICU COVID Communications Team was specially honored for contributing to extraordinary patient care in the pandemic.

Future Expansion in Mental Health Care

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission is partnering with UT Southwestern Medical Center to build the Texas Behavioral Health Center at UT Southwestern. This hospital will combine the expertise of both organizations and community stakeholders to provide state-of-the-art mental health care for our region. The adult facility construction is estimated for completion by late 2025, with a pediatric addition by early 2026.

Support for Child Mental Health

Additionally, the State of Texas supports specialized programs for child mental health through the Texas Child Mental Health Care Consortium. These programs are delivered at Health-Related Institutions around the state, including UT Southwestern Medical Center.
