About The Bradley Center – Pittsburgh
Bradley Center started in 1905. Their Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility, formerly called the Robinson Campus, is in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. They help children and adolescents from ages 6-18 who have mental and behavioral health disorders. They have a residential program, outpatient services, and a school.
When your child is admitted, they can bring personal belongings to decorate their room, as long as the material isn’t offensive or against the center’s policies. Hygiene and amenities are included. You’ll meet the case management team, and they’ll determine which therapies should be applied, including anger management and learning to not use violence to deal with trauma. They’ll have group and individual counseling several times a week to build up a network of cohorts with whom they can recover together.
Along with counseling, there are many activities your kid can participate in. Sports and exercise are popular, which can include tennis lessons, dance classes, and going to the movies. Therapy animals also roam the campus and can help your kids learn responsibility through taking care of pets. There are also plenty of field trips to local zoos, museums, and picnics. Kids can socialize and build confidence and life skills.
They also provide a campus school, which offers small classroom sizes and helps students who have trouble learning. They’ll have homework and projects, like in any other school. That way, they won’t fall behind their peers while they’re at Bradley. The Bradley School has connections with over 70 schools in the Pittsburgh area, and its teachers are versed in all grade levels and subjects.
