About Perimeter Behavioral of Missouri
This provider treats children and teens ages 6–18 in a secure, 96-bed residential treatment facility designed to support trauma recovery and emotional growth. The program serves those with high-acuity behavioral and mental health needs, including those navigating trauma, stress, anger, and anxiety. Gender-specific psychiatric units offer structure, therapy, and peer support in a safe, therapeutic environment.
Guide Healing Through Sessions
Clinicians use trauma-informed care and integrate evidence-based practices such as individual, group, and family therapy. Residents participate in expressive arts, recreation therapy, and canine-assisted sessions that help build trust and social skills. Staff lead daily therapeutic groups that teach communication, emotional regulation, and healthy behavior.
Ease Transitions With Supportive Programs
Residents live in shared units with structured routines, on-campus school access, and outdoor activity areas. Nurses assist with outside appointments, meals follow plans that nutritionists approve, and each unit offers access to laundry facilities. Alongside its core residential services, the center offers the Sexual Aggressive Youth (SAY) Program for male adolescents, which follows a relapse prevention model to support healthy identity development. The Transitional Living Program helps residents move from high-level care to a more independent, home-like setting with staff support and daily responsibilities.

Approaches
Family Involvement

Individual Treatment
Individual care meets the needs of each patient, using personalized treatment to provide them the most relevant care and greatest chance of success.

Life Skills

In recreation therapy, recovery can be joyful. Patients practice social skills and work through emotional triggers by engaging in fun activities.
