About us

Located in Waynesville, Missouri, Perimeter mental of Missouriโ€”formerly Piney Ridge Centerโ€”is a mental health center. For teenagers who deal with a variety of mental health issues, the facility offers extensive residential and outpatient programs. The age range for these programs is 13 to 18. Perimeter Behavioral of Missouri strives to assist adolescents in minimizing trauma, establishing healthy coping mechanisms, and gaining confidence via tailored care and therapy treatments. 

With 96 beds, the residential care facility provides an organized setting for teenagers to interact with their peers and promote personal development. In order to incorporate loved ones in the healing process, the program consists of many weekly sessions of both individual and group therapy in addition to family gatherings. Participants may concentrate on their mental health and behavioral rehabilitation while receiving educational services at a nearby campus, which guarantees that their academic demands will be satisfied. 

Within the residential program, specialized tracks are offered to meet the special requirements of teenagers with certain behavioral issues. One noteworthy song is intended to stop antagonistic behavior in adolescent guys who are displaying sexual aggression. It does this by promoting empathy and healthy ways for the boys to express themselves. Another track gives at-risk adolescents trust interventions so they may learn healthy behavior management skills before their actions get out of control. 

Perimeter Behavioral of Missouri provides a transitional program for teenagers who have finished the residential program but still need further help before they can properly reintegrate into their communities. Through this program, participants may live and work in a home-like environment where they can learn vital life skills and assume domestic duties. This method places a strong emphasis on independence and self-reliance, giving young people the self-assurance and real-world experience they need to make a smooth transition back into society. 

As shown by its accreditations, Perimeter Behavioral of Missouri is dedicated to upholding the highest levels of treatment and assistance. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has listed the institution, it is Joint Commission recognized, and it is licensed by the state of Missouri. These accreditations attest to the center’s commitment to provide adolescents with mental health issues safe, efficient, and evidence-based treatment.
