About Centra Bridges Treatment Center
Centra Bridges Treatment Center is a residential program in Lynchburg, Virginia, for youth aged 6 to 17. As part of the Centra healthcare network, they accept Medicaid and funding through state contracts with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. They also accept funding through the local Comprehensive Services Act coordinator.
Residential Youth Treatment for Emotional and Behavioral Issues
This residential treatment program is designed specifically for youth who have not responded to other outpatient treatment efforts and who also have educational needs. The program helps youth continue their education while providing intensive treatment.
Most youth at Bridges are admitted after an acute psychiatric inpatient admission. The program helps them and their families who have exhausted other less restrictive options in the community. Boys and girls with emotional and behavioral disorders are admitted, including those with co-occurring disorders related to their mental health conditions.
Psychiatric and Co-Occurring Conditions
While a mental health condition may be the primary diagnosis, they also provide care for youth who have a substance use disorder. They don’t provide medical or social detoxification, but adults with chemical dependencies may be referred for medication assisted treatment. The primary diagnoses being addressed include mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, attachment issues, and post traumatic stress disorder to name a few.
Components of the program include individual, group, and family therapy, social skills training, and treatment planning with medication management. Youth admitted from the community are typically referred by the special education department.
They’t licensed by the state and accredited by The Joint Commission.
