ABC Therapy

What ABC Therapy does

ABC Therapy (legal entity ABC Therapy LLC) is a family-owned, bilingual behavioral health practice headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, founded in 1995 by Dr. Julio C. Landero, a Certified Addictionologist and former alcoholic who built the practice around recovery-oriented, culturally competent care for Southern Nevada's Hispanic community and court-mandated populations. The company operates three physical offices across East Las Vegas, West Las Vegas, and Henderson (Water Street and Sunset Road), with 101-250 employees. Services are delivered by licensed bilingual clinicians using evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care.

The service portfolio spans five integrated lines: mental health counseling (individual, family/couples, outpatient, immigration hardship evaluations), substance abuse programs (outpatient treatment, SASSI-based evaluations, DUI assessments, DOT/SAP evaluations), court-mandated classes (domestic violence, anger management, impulse control, petty larceny rehabilitation, effective choices 8-hour class), traffic and DUI programs (DMV-certified DUI school, repeat offender traffic school, traffic school), and specialty evaluations (gambling addiction, custody, employee assistance program). All services are available in English and Spanish, and the practice is listed on official referral lists for Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Boulder City, Pahrump, and Mesquite courts, plus Nevada DMV and federal DOT/SAP programs.

Revenue is generated through four fee-for-service streams: court-mandated program fees, per-session mental health counseling billed to insurance or self-pay, corporate EAP contracts with employers and union health funds, and professional-services billing for immigration hardship evaluations. Customer acquisition is institutional rather than marketing-led: court referrals, immigration attorney referrals, employer/HR EAP referrals, and word-of-mouth within the Hispanic community drive volume. The company maintains relationships with major Nevada payers and employers including Culinary Health Fund, MGM Resorts, Venetian/Palazzo, Teamsters Local 14 and 986, Resorts World Las Vegas, Health Plan of Nevada, Sierra Health & Life, and Palms Hotel and Casino. Operations remain entirely regional (Southern Nevada), with a recent online courses platform (abctherapy.courteducation.com) signaling early digital channel build-out.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Regional players

• Quest Counseling & Consulting: Nevada-based outpatient behavioral health and substance abuse treatment provider offering court-approved programs, mental health counseling, and EAP-adjacent services — comparable outpatient and mandated-program footprint but primarily serving the Reno/Sparks region.
• The Life Change Center: Outpatient substance abuse and behavioral health provider based in Sparks, Nevada, offering court-approved assessments and counseling — same Nevada outpatient and court-mandated model as ABC Therapy but serving the Reno market rather than Las Vegas.

Broad incumbents

• Acadia Healthcare: Large publicly traded behavioral health operator running inpatient and outpatient facilities nationwide, including substance abuse treatment and mental health services — competes with ABC Therapy in the broader outpatient behavioral health category but at significantly larger scale and with a residential-heavy portfolio.
• Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation: Nationally recognized addiction treatment provider offering outpatient and residential substance abuse programs, including court-ordered assessments and counseling — broad incumbent with overlapping substance abuse and outpatient service lines, though primarily inpatient/residential in orientation.
• Caron Treatment Centers: National addiction and behavioral health treatment provider with outpatient programming and clinical evaluations used in legal and EAP contexts — comparable in offering court-relevant assessments and counseling, but operates as a larger, geographically distributed organization.

Emerging players

• Cerebral: Digital mental health platform offering online counseling and medication management for anxiety, depression, and related conditions — an emerging player attacking overlapping outpatient mental health demand through telehealth, representing a structurally different delivery model against which ABC Therapy's in-person approach must compete.
• BetterHelp: Large online therapy platform delivering individual, couples, and family counseling via telehealth — competes for the same self-pay and EAP-referred counseling demand as ABC Therapy but through a digital-only model that ABC Therapy does not currently offer.

Direct peers

• Solutions Recovery: Las Vegas outpatient behavioral health provider focused on substance abuse treatment, mental health counseling, and court-referred programs — directly comparable service mix and target population to ABC Therapy's outpatient and mandated-program business.
• Center for Behavioral Health: Las Vegas-based outpatient substance abuse and mental health treatment provider offering court-approved DUI evaluations, substance abuse counseling, and related services — directly overlapping with ABC Therapy's core outpatient and court-mandated lines in the same metro.
• WestCare Nevada: Nonprofit behavioral health and social services provider operating across Nevada with outpatient counseling, substance abuse treatment, and reentry programming — a close mission-aligned peer serving many of the same court-mandated and community-based populations in Southern Nevada.
