Forrest Behavioral Health

You’re Not Alone in This

At Forrest Behavioral Health, we understand how hard it is when the light inside you feels dim. Whether you’re newly aware of these feelings or you’ve been battling them for seasons, you don’t have to face this alone.

Called on a Sunday to get information for someone and was simply amazed at the level of care and concern from a staff member Nick. After discovering the insurance would not work there he still went above and beyond to provide any assistance he could to help the situation! Just don't get that type of service much anymore so can only imagine the extent they go to with their patients there.

My partner and I have been seeing him for couples therapy during a really difficult time in our relationship. He does a great job creating space for both people to talk without just taking sides or blaming one person.

The sessions aren’t always easy, but they’ve helped me better understand myself, my partner, and the patterns we get stuck in. I appreciate that he asks real questions and helps move the conversation forward.

I’d recommend him to couples who are trying to work through that really hard stuff!

Forrest was instrumental in my recovery. The clinicians and staff were always on point, understanding, knowledgeable and compassionate. The psycho-education and therapy I received at Forrest has changed my life and perspectives. I am a new person with a better out look on life. I couldn't have done this without them. I highly recommend Forrest for mental health and substance abuse treatment! Many thanks to Forrest Behavioral.

Forrest has truly changed my life. Every therapist and staff member was exactly what I had always hoped to find—compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive. I stayed for as long as my insurance allowed because I didn’t want to leave the amazing groups or the invaluable skills and tools I gained during my time there. They prepared me so thoughtfully for the transition, and while leaving was bittersweet, I feel confident and ready thanks to everything I learned. I’m deeply grateful for the care and guidance I received.

Great program for those that struggle with mental health and substance use disorders. I grew up in this area and there wasn’t much offered when I was struggling years ago it’s great to see a good program available to those in need. Owners are great guys very involved and down to earth and have lived this through their own experiences which puts a nice touch on the program itself. Highly recommend!

I was a client for just over four months, and I can honestly say that it's the best PHP/IOP program I've been in. The groups were well-run, informative, and did a great deal to open my mind and clear up some of my mental blocks surrounding my struggles. The individual therapy was incredibly helpful as well. The case management team worked quickly to help me with insurance and benefits, and found a sober house for me when I decided that was the next step.

I never want to need their services again, but I 100% would encourage anyone looking to kickstart their recovery to look at Forrest.

Wonderful staff and great program! Can't say enough wonderful things about everyone here. Very knowledgeable and skilled at helping with every aspect of the process. It was my first time in treatment for addiction and they were very communicative and helpful. They focused not only on the addiction side of my treatment but the mental issues that lead to me chosing my substance.

The facility and program are great but the people who operate it are even better. I spent 3 months in a hybrid in-person/remote program that allowed me the flexibility to participate while managing other responsibilities. I found myself looking forward to the in person days where I’d have the opportunity to interact more personally with the staff and others who were in the program. People were there for a host of different reasons and the staff handled it exceptionally well with the underlying goal of just wanting to see everyone better themself. If you’re willing to make the effort this program and its people are ready to help.

This place is the real deal. I was here for about 3 months. Every single one of the staff is really invested in your recovery and helping you with your life. When your not having a good day or something is off they notice it right away and do anything they can to help. They helped me get my life back on track and checked in with me every single day to make sure I was doing what I needed to do. It was never about money at all with them like it is at other places. I have been gone for an about a month now and I have had multiple people check in on me just because they care. If I didn't have the resources to get help again they would make it work. Your first day there they will make you feel extremely comfortable and the place is very nice and clean. There is truly no other place like this. 10/10

Why “It” Won’t Just Go Away by Itself

Depression isn’t just feeling “sad” or “off” occasionally. It can be:

  • Persistent fatigue, even after rest

  • Loss of interest in things you used to enjoy

  • Feelings of worthlessness or guilt

  • Difficulty concentrating or making decisions

  • Changes in appetite or sleep that won’t resolve

These are not signs of weakness. They’re signs of a brain and body out of balance. Left unsupported, depression often deepens. It can pull you further from connection, from hope, and from the life you know you deserve.

A Program Built for You, With You.

Here’s how Forrest’s depression treatment program is designed to help you reclaim control, restore balance, and move toward a future that feels lighter:

1. Understand your story

Your journey and experiences matter. We take the time to listen, without judgment, to where you’ve been, what you’ve tried, and what’s worked (or hasn’t). That context shapes every part of your plan.

2. Tailored care & evidence-based treatment

We combine proven therapeutic modalities (like cognitive behavioural therapy, interpersonal therapy, mindfulness) with compassionate, individualized support.
Gone are the “one-size-fits-all” solutions. This is about you.

3. Build skills to reclaim life

Depression doesn’t just vanish with treatment. It requires tools, practice, and momentum. We’ll help you:

  • Rediscover interests and activities that bring joy (or re-ignite them)

  • Establish routines that nurture your energy and mood

  • Develop strategies to navigate setbacks and maintain progress

4. A supportive environment all around you

You’ll feel seen, heard, and guided. Not just treated. Our clinical team works with you and, when appropriate, your support system (family, loved ones, close friends) to build a sustainable recovery network.

5. Transition & sustain your progress

The goal isn’t just to feel better while you’re here. It’s to live better after you leave. We’ll help you map out what post-program life looks like: follow-up care, relapse-prevention plans, community resources. You’re not just ending something. You’re starting something better.

Imagine What’s Possible

  • Waking up without dread, willing to engage in your day.

  • Feeling connected again. With yourself, with people you care about, with things that matter.

  • Having choices instead of being stuck in the same cycles.

  • Knowing you have tools to protect your progress and keep moving forward.

That’s not just recovery. That’s renewal.
