About Perimeter Behavioral of Forrest City

Perimeter Behavioral of Forrest City is a psychiatric residential treatment facility in Forrest City, Arkansas providing specialized long term care for adolescent boys. The accredited center offers a standard residential program and a dedicated Sexual Rehabilitative Unit, integrating therapy with on-site education.

Families appreciate the structured, trauma informed environment focused on positive outcomes. I think it's notable that these programs may also be able to address co occurring drug or alcohol addictions, but substance use isn't their primary focus.

Unique and Specialized Behavioral Health Programs

Perimeter offers long term psychiatric residential care, including a Sexual Rehabilitative Unit or SRU for boys who struggle with sexual abuse or other sexually problematic behavior. Treatment includes weekly individual therapy, group sessions, family therapy, and modalities like trauma focused CBT and Trust Based Relational Intervention or TBRI.

The center is located on Albert Street in Forrest City, Arkansas, about one hour northeast of Little Rock. The campus features indoor and outdoor recreation spaces, including a gym and activity rooms.

Treating Teens Without Compromising Academics

An on site, state licensed school provides individualized education plans as part of the program. I think it's helpful to know that your child can get the help he needs without falling behind in school.

This facility serves adolescent boys aged 12 to 17. It specializes in helping youth with complex trauma and co-occurring mental health diagnoses, and it operates a dedicated unit for adolescents who have displayed sexually maladaptive behavior or are at risk.

The facility is in network with major insurers including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, Beacon, TRICARE, and all PASSE plans. Their business office also works to secure single case agreements for out of network plans.

Addiction Treatment Programs

Teen & Adolescent Program

An effective young adult program in Arkansas gives young people the skills they need to embrace recovery with confidence and the ability to make healthy choices. Treatment focuses on challenges specific to this age group.

Men's Rehab

Men’s rehab in Arkansas is designed exclusively for males who are struggling with an alcohol or substance use disorder. Because men and women often respond better to different types of treatment, this targeted rehab can be more effective than mixed-gender treatment.

Women's Rehab

For women, the experiences that lead to addiction are often very different than men. Women’s rehab in Arkansas addresses the way stress, trauma, genetics, and their environment affect women’s addiction challenges and recovery journey.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Often used to treat dual diagnosis disorders, cognitive behavioral therapy in Arkansas addresses disroders like PTSD, ADD, anxiety, OCD, and bipolar disorder, along with substance use disorders. This method helps individuals find connections between their feelings, thoughts, and actions and understand how those things affect their recovery.

Levels of Care

Dual Diagnosis & Mental Health

Many people who struggle with addiction also experience co-occurring disorders such as depression or anxiety. Dual diagnosis programs in Arkansas specialize in treating both disorders, which is essential for recovery.

Inpatient Rehab

Inpatient rehab in Arkansas is designed primarily for clients exiting detox, people in early recovery, and those at an elevated risk of relapse. Participants reside at the treatment facility until they complete their recovery program, which gives them access to medical providers and therapeutic tools. .
