About Centra Health Inc

Centra Health’s Bridges Treatment Center specializes in providing residential support for young individuals aged 6 to 17 who are dealing with autism, developmental challenges, and behavioral health issues. The center offers round-the-clock assistance, therapeutic services, and educational programs within a safe, organized environment tailored for neurodiverse children and adolescents. Each child's care plan is customized to foster success at home, in educational settings, and within the community.

The center employs a comprehensive treatment strategy that includes one-on-one and group therapy sessions, as well as medication oversight, all supervised by specialists in developmental pediatrics. These interventions are designed to help children enhance their emotional management, social interaction skills, and cope with difficult behaviors. By integrating therapy with education, the center supports each child's growth in self-assurance and functional abilities in everyday life.

Bridges Treatment Center creates a family-like atmosphere where children reside throughout their treatment phase. The residential facility features cozy living areas, structured daily schedules, and dependable caregiver support. This environment aims to make children feel safe and acknowledged while enabling staff to attend to their emotional, behavioral, and developmental requirements consistently throughout the day.
