Mental Healthcare

The North Texas Behavioral Health Authority (NTBHA) is the Texas state-designated Local Behavioral Health Authority (LBHA) for the counties of Dallas, Ellis, Hunt, Kaufman, Navarro, and Rockwall. NTBHA was created to be a safety net for our behavioral health system of care, which encompasses mental health and substance use for persons eligible for Medicaid and/or public behavioral health funds, and mental health crisis services within our six-county region. We accomplish this by contracting with various mental health and substance use services providers throughout our region to ensure individual choice of provider. NTBHA received its Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) certification in partnership with Child and Family Guidance Center, Homeward Bound, and Southern Area Behavioral Healthcare, which ensures a holistic, "no wrong door" approach to providing accessible, high-quality, recovery-oriented services. NTBHA is committed to providing quality behavioral health services for individuals, regardless of their ability to pay, place of residence, and/or their experience with homelessness. We will reduce or waive fees for those experiencing financial hardship using the sliding fee discount schedule provided by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission. NTBHA seeks to develop a collaborative system of care for individuals experiencing mental illness and/or substance use disorders. Collaborative Responsibility is the belief that the public healthcare system, which serves a community, is the responsibility of that community.
