The mental health of our teenage population is crucial to
the well-being and future of our nation. Today, I'm here to provide a status
report on the state of this mission. According to the Department of Health and
Human Services Office of Population Affairs, while many adolescents experience
positive mental health, an estimated 49.5 percent of adolescents have had a
mental health disorder at some point in their lives. Promoting positive mental
health can prevent some of these problems. Austin Davis is a leader in teenage
behavioral health and addiction treatment, dedicating over 15 years to
transforming the lives of teens and their families. He uses the power of faith
in the recovery process to help his clients become healthy and happy members of
their community. Austin is the founder and CEO of Clearfork Academy, a
prominent treatment center in Texas for troubled teens. His commitment to teen
mental health makes him a leading figure in the industry. He has spoken to
parents, community health professionals, educators, and teens nationwide,
sharing insights on effective treatment methodologies, the importance of mental
health awareness, and the power of faith in the recovery process. Austin earned
a Bachelor of Science in Pastoral Ministry from Lee University in Cleveland,
TN, and furthered his education with a Master of Arts in Counseling from The
Church of God Theological Seminary. This education laid the foundation for his
professional journey in clinical counseling and church ministry. When he's not
helping teens or serving his community, he spends time with his wife and three
kids, plays guitar, and enjoys the outdoors.
