About Wyoming Behavioral Institute

The Wyoming Behavioral Institute (WBI), based in Casper, Wyoming, is an 81-bed acute care psychiatric hospital that delivers a full range of mental health services to children age 5 and older, teens, adults, and seniors. The center addresses issues including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, self-harm, and substance use disorders that may occur alongside other mental health challenges.

WBI provides a continuum of services such as inpatient hospitalization, trauma-informed residential programming for girls ages 10–17, and outpatient care. The treatment approach includes individual and group therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), medication management, expressive arts therapy, and family therapy. WBI also offers specialized programs, including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for treatment-resistant depression and the SMART Recovery program to support individuals with substance use concerns, reflecting its focus on modern, research-informed treatment.

To broaden access to care, WBI operates a statewide telehealth intensive outpatient program for adolescents ages 14–17. Through scheduled therapy sessions, the program helps young people manage mental and behavioral health needs while fitting into their routines and reducing or avoiding travel requirements.
