Addressing Corpus Christi’s Mental Health Needs

Addressing the mental health needs of Corpus Christi and the wider Nueces County area is the top concern of our team at Oceans Behavioral Hospital Corpus Christi. In 2024, an estimated 19.81 per 100,000 residents in Nueces County experienced suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation and other indicators of poor mental health should always be taken seriously. It’s our priority to guide community members through severe mental health crises and instill in them the skills to find long-term stability. 

We’re here to meet the mental health needs of the people of Nueces County. We will be here every step of the way.

Oceans Behavioral Hospital Corpus Christi occupies a 42-bed, 30,000 square-foot unit within CHRISTUS Spohn Hospital Corpus Christi – Shoreline. The future Intensive Outpatient Program will further extend the program’s reach and provide ongoing treatment to individuals managing behavioral health challenges.

Our treatment programs are focused on healing and long-term recovery with the goal of helping patients return to their lives. Whether our patients are experiencing common mental health challenges like depression and anxiety or another behavioral health concern complicated by a dual diagnosis, our staff treats every patient with dignity and respect on their path to healing.

Common Mental Health Disorders We Treat

At Oceans Behavioral Hospital Corpus Christi, we provide compassionate, individualized treatment for adults and seniors living with a wide range of mental health conditions. Our programs are designed to support each person’s unique journey to wellness through evidence-based care and a healing environment rooted in respect and dignity.

Depression Treatment

Depression can make it difficult to feel motivated, connected, or hopeful. Our treatment program provides emotional support, structured therapy, and medication management to help individuals address the root causes of depression and rebuild a sense of meaning and purpose.

Bipolar Disorder Treatment

Bipolar disorder involves cycles of manic highs and depressive lows. We offer specialized care to help patients stabilize moods, understand their conditions, and implement coping strategies to create more balanced and fulfilling lives.

ADHD Treatment

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder in adults often presents as disorganization, difficulty concentrating, or impulsive behavior. Our team works closely with patients to develop strategies for focus, structure, and success in daily living.

OCD Treatment

Obsessive-compulsive disorder causes distressing, repetitive thoughts and compulsions. At Oceans Behavioral Hospital Corpus Christi, we provide targeted therapy like exposure and response prevention (ERP) to help patients reduce symptoms and take back control of their routines.

PTSD Treatment

Post-traumatic stress disorder may result from exposure to a traumatic event and can manifest as flashbacks, irritability, and sleep disruption. We offer trauma-informed treatment using modalities like CBT and EMDR to help patients regain a sense of safety and emotional balance.

Trauma Therapy

Emotional trauma—whether recent or longstanding—can affect both mental and physical health. Our trauma therapy program provides a supportive space where individuals can work through their experiences, rebuild trust, and create healthier patterns for the future.

Antisocial Personality Disorder Treatment

Antisocial personality disorder may lead to impulsivity, aggression, and a lack of regard for others. Our approach emphasizes accountability, self-awareness, and behavioral change through structured therapeutic support.

Panic Disorder Treatment

Panic disorder is characterized by sudden, intense episodes of fear or discomfort. Our treatment focuses on identifying triggers, reducing the frequency of attacks, and helping patients gain confidence in managing the symptoms that disrupt their daily lives.

Anxiety Treatment

Anxiety disorders can interfere with daily responsibilities, relationships, and peace of mind. At our Corpus Christi facility, we help patients manage overwhelming thoughts, fear, and restlessness through proven therapeutic techniques and customized care plans that promote calm and control.

Borderline Personality Disorder Treatment

With symptoms like emotional instability, fear of abandonment, and impulsive behavior, borderline personality disorder can feel overwhelming. Our care team uses evidence-based approaches such as DBT to help patients build emotional regulation and healthier relationships.

Dependent Personality Disorder Treatment

Dependent personality disorder can cause individuals to rely heavily on others for decision-making and daily functioning. We support patients in building independence, assertiveness, and the self-confidence needed to navigate life more freely.

Narcissistic Disorder Treatment

Narcissistic personality disorder involves challenges with empathy, self-esteem, and interpersonal functioning. Through therapy, we help individuals understand their behaviors and foster emotional insight, balance, and growth.

Complicated Grief Treatment

Grief is a natural response to loss, but when it becomes prolonged or debilitating, it may require professional help. We support individuals in navigating their emotions, finding meaning, and learning to move forward without losing connection to what they’ve lost.

Dissociative Disorder Treatment

Dissociative disorders can disrupt one’s sense of identity, memory, or reality. Our clinicians guide patients through a stabilizing treatment process that promotes reintegration, self-awareness, and emotional safety.

Childhood Trauma Treatment

Unresolved childhood trauma can have lasting effects on mental health. At our Corpus Christi location, we provide safe, compassionate care to help patients process early experiences, develop healthy coping strategies, and break free from patterns rooted in the past.

Schizophrenia Treatment

Our schizophrenia treatment integrates medication management with therapy to manage symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions, promoting greater well-being.

Schizoaffective Disorder Treatment

Schizoaffective disorder presents with both mood disorder symptoms and features of schizophrenia. We provide an integrated treatment approach that addresses the full spectrum of symptoms, helping patients move toward greater clarity, stability, and quality of life.
