Wyoming Behavioral Institute

About Wyoming Behavioral Institute – Casper, Wyoming

The Wyoming Behavioral Institute in Casper, Wyoming, has many programs which focus on both substance use disorders and mental health conditions. These programs are unique in their approach and individualized for adults and children.

All of the mental health programs at WBI are designed to address crisis stabilization and long term management of complex mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder. If you are in need of immediate treatment during an acute mental health crisis, the institute offers inpatient psychiatric care where you can spend time in a safe and structured environment while surrounded by medical professionals. This treatment consists of continuous observation, psychiatric examinations and both individual and group therapy. Their partial hospitalization program (PHP) serves individuals who need less intensive care but still require support on a daily basis. This program allows you to attend treatment during the day and return home in the evenings. Their mental health services include a team of psychologists, psychiatrists, therapists and social workers who create an integrated recovery plan for each patient.

WBI offers curated programs for substance abuse along with detox services, inpatient treatment and outpatient therapy. The first step is generally a detox, which takes place under medical supervision and helps people to remove some of those long term toxins from their system. They then move on to inpatient rehab, where they engage in extensive therapy sessions with each patient. This therapy aims to uncover why they became addicted in the first place to provide a more well rounded foundation for recovery. WBI integrates 12 Steps, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and family therapy into their treatment.

WBI Recognizes the significance of co-occurring disorders, which occurs when a person has two or more diagnoses. Using an integrated approach to treat addiction and mental health concurrently, their treatment programs eliminate the need for patients to decide between treating their addictions or issues concerning their mental state.

WBI offers specialized treatment for adolescents, recognizing that they are a maturing human in both body and brain, not simply smaller adults. Their child and adolescent inpatient units work to stabilize individuals experiencing severe mental health or behavioral issues, providing tools for the patients and their families.
