Pine Tree Equity Recapitalizes Paradigm

Pine Tree Equity III, LP (“Pine Tree Equity”), a private equity firm based in Miami, FL, is pleased to announce that it has recapitalized Paradigm Treatment Centers, LLC (“Paradigm” or the “Company”) in April 2019.  The Company, founded in 2012 and headquartered in Malibu, CA, is a leading provider of treatment for behavioral health disorders to adolescents (between the ages of 12 to 17 or “teens”.)  For additional information on Paradigm, please visit www.paradigmmalibu.com.

The Company primarily provides treatment for teens with issues such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, trauma and any number of other behavioral and mental health concerns. Paradigm treats teens through an innovative clinical program that looks to uncover the underlying emotions causing the patient’s erratic behavior, instead of trying to modify the behavior by using either punitive or reward based therapies. The program has a higher efficacy than traditional therapies, as demonstrated by a study conducted by Pepperdine University.

Pine Tree Equity partnered with the founders of Paradigm to recapitalize the platform in order to accelerate the Company’s geographic expansion and pursue complementary add-on acquisitions. Paradigm marks Pine Tree Equity’s 70th investment since inception in 2007 (i.e., 22 platform and 48 add-on acquisitions.)  We are pleased to offer traditional referral fees for a closed transaction based on a signed fee agreement.  For additional information, please call Roberto Canto at (305) 808-9820.
