A LETTER FROM THE FOUNDERS

Welcome to ATX Mental Health!

When we met, Damien was focusing his time on building the first mental health hospital in Williamson County, Texas and using his talents to make sure each patient was treated with respect and effective care. He was also able to fulfill one of his dreams to create a very successful program specifically for active duty service members diagnosed with trauma and substance abuse conditions. 

During this time, Sarah was focused on completing her advanced training for a clinical social work license. She was specializing in acute mental health crises and trauma. Sarah worked in all areas of clinical practice and used her social work training to help clients reconnect to their communities and families. 

With different backgrounds but the same goals, we knew one day we wanted to create something together to offer the Central Texas community care that reflects our belief that mental illness is best treated with compassion, tenderness, and mutual respect. We believe that a multi-disciplinary team is key to offering holistic interventions and avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach.

We’re honored that you’re considering ATX Mental Health. We hope to meet you soon.
