Facility Overview

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.
