Metropolitan St. Louis Psychiatric Center, located on Delmar Boulevard in St. Louis, Missouri, provides comprehensive inpatient and outpatient psychiatric care with a strong emphasis on forensic mental health services. As part of Missouri’s Department of Mental Health system, the facility operates specialized programs at both Forensic Treatment Center North and Forensic Treatment Center South. These programs serve individuals who require competency restoration, forensic evaluation, or intensive inpatient treatment for those adjudicated under legal standards such as Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity (NGRI). With a focus on psychiatric stabilization, medication management, and psychosocial rehabilitation, the center helps patients restore competency, achieve stability, and transition safely back into the community.
In addition to its forensic and inpatient services, the facility offers a wide range of therapeutic and rehabilitative programs designed to promote recovery, independent living, and long-term stability. Specialized services include support for Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals, group therapy, crisis intervention, and transitional rehabilitation. The center also integrates evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), recovery-oriented groups, and holistic approaches including creative arts, music therapy, fitness, and spiritual care. By addressing both psychiatric and behavioral needs, Metropolitan St. Louis Psychiatric Center plays a critical role in providing structured, patient-centered care for individuals with complex mental health conditions, ensuring they receive the treatment, education, and skills necessary for successful reintegration into society.
Brittany is a very passionate therapist. She truly takes each child’s unique needs and addresses it with such care. She is professional yet very personable with her clients and their family. She cares for the well being of each and every child she works with. If you are seeking counseling for your child, I’d highly recommend Brittany!
Edward Flynn is, without a doubt, a truly exceptional therapist. His approach to group therapy is transformative, and his impact on my life has been profound. I came to his group feeling overwhelmed by my circumstances, struggling to find joy and purpose. Edward possesses a remarkable ability to create a safe and supportive environment where vulnerability is encouraged, and genuine connection thrives.
My great nephew was in there we went to pick him up to see his dad overall the place was okay and the staff was really nice and courteous he's in a better place.
I was told that I applied for sliding scale payment, then I was told I did not. If you have insurance that doesn’t help much; don’t even mention it. They will not help you with sliding scale payments if they know you have insurance.
