Call Center Company in Frisco, TX

In about a month, Tammy Meinershagen will know if she retains her seat on the Frisco City Council. Meanwhile, a conversation she acknowledges in a safe space could be troublesome.

"As leaders, we are held to a higher standard," she said. "We are expected to listen, to care, to give our honest opinion."

Councilwoman addresses leaked recordings

The 49-year-old deputy mayor pro tem and councilwoman for Place 2 went to social media Monday to explain a series of secret recordings released by the online community content gatherer Frisco Chronicles-Whistleblower on Friday, May 3, the day before the election.

In the recordings, Meinershagen gave her perspective on firefighters approaching her about her campaign, other council members, Indians who live and work in Frisco, and more.

"When we make mistakes, we must own them," Meinershagen said. "Recently, I was asked to go to a friend's house and share my experience, my frustrations — the good, bad, and ugly of being on the council. I shared it all."

Investigating edited recordings

CBS News Texas sent the audio recordings to our CBS Confirms Team, who immediately noticed our observation: The series of videos was edited. Some of the audio edits were easy to hear.

The CBS Confirms Team contacted the Frisco Chronicles-Whistleblower for the original recordings for a more extensive examination to determine if artificial intelligence was involved.

"We received the conversation from a confidential source. It was from a conversation between two parties that took place earlier this year in a private home in Frisco. It was recorded by one of the individuals in the conversation via their iPhone voice recording app. We used a voice comparison app to confirm and verify that it was current Council Member Tammy Meinershagen. To obtain the tapes, we had to agree to remove the second party's voice to protect them. We deliberated on releasing it, but we truly feel that with the political climate in Frisco at an all-time high, voters have the right to know what is truly in the hearts of those we intend to elect. Our goal is simple: We are not here for revenge against any one person or place. We are strictly here to tell the truth wherever it takes us, regardless of who it is about. We believe in always protecting our sources and will never disclose who sent the information and/or how we received it."

Meinershagen vows to heal with words after apology

AI aside, Meinershagen owned the words and the tough road ahead, especially one where she was forced into a runoff.

"I thought it was a safe space, but it was not," she said. "The failure was fully mine, and I own that. Words can hurt deeply, and I sincerely apologize to those I have hurt with my words."

Meinershagen said she plans to use words for healing as she readies herself for the challenging conversations ahead.

FRISCO, Texas, April 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BasePoint, a leading provider of Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) for adolescents and young adults, is expanding its reach with the opening of its fourth in-person clinic in Frisco, Texas. This new location strengthens BasePoint's mission to provide best-in-class mental health treatment while continuing its statewide Virtual IOP programming to ensure accessible care across Texas.

For BasePoint Founders Roy and Blake Serpa, this expansion is deeply personal. Blake shared, "Frisco is home. I grew up in Frisco. My sister's mental health struggles also started here at age 10. By 18, she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and shortly after, we lost her to suicide," said Serpa. "BasePoint was built for families who don't know where to turn but want the best possible care for their loved ones. Every decision we make is guided by one simple question: 'What would you want for your own family?'" The opening of BasePoint Frisco is a significant step toward the organization's long-term vision of improving mental health access across Texas.

"This clinic opening drives us toward our BHAG—our 'Big Hairy Audacious Goal'—of moving Texas from last place to the top five in mental health care access by 2030," Serpa added.

Expanding Access to Mental Health Care in Texas

Texas ranks among the lowest in the country for mental health care access, and BasePoint is tackling the crisis head-on by investing in high-quality treatment in one of the state's fastest growing communities.

Committed to strategic and thoughtful growth, BasePoint ensures that each expansion is supported by a strong corporate infrastructure, designed to maintain the highest standards of clinical excellence and operational efficiency. With plans to launch 2-3 new clinics in Texas metros by 2026-2027, this deliberate approach allows BasePoint to expand access to compassionate, evidence-based mental health treatment for teens and young adults.

"BasePoint is addressing Texas's current mental health crisis head-on by investing in quality PHP and IOP treatment now conveniently located in Frisco, one of Texas's fastest growing areas," said Shara McClure, BasePoint Board Member and former Divisional Vice President, Texas Health Care Delivery for Blue Cross Blue Shield. "The thriving Frisco business community should have peace of mind knowing that BasePoint is there, expanding access for their families when they need them."
