Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

Heart icon Treatment

check iconDual Diagnosis

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

mental-health iconMental Health

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

inpatient-file iconCognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

couples-therapy iconCouples Therapy

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

dialectical iconDialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.

medical-detox iconExperiential Therapy

Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

family iconFamily Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

intervention iconGroup Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

mental-health iconIndividual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

house-medical iconTrauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

Some therapists made an active effort to ignore your actual needs and thoughts. Instead of dealing with that, they over drug you. Unless you have Medicaid, they aren't really interested in taking you in, even with private insurances.

My son went to the Barry Robinson IOP program that CHKD recommended for 3 days. He struggled with marijuana use and vaping. At this program they teach children it is ok to use marijuana and to vape, because they would rather them use that over harder drugs. They teach them the way to obtain them safely and how to use them responsible. My son brought THC gummies to one meeting, like all the kids bring substances there, and the therapist knew about it and gave it back to him and told me the next day. I don t understand how this is even legal allowing underaged kids to vape on the property and bring marijuana on the property, let alone give it back to them so they can use it. If your child is struggling with marijuana and tobacco use this is not the program. Disappointed in this program and unclear how they can still be operating teaching these beliefs to underage kids.

Hello, thank you for your feedback. You have reached The Barry Robinson Center, which is a residential treatment center for military-connected youth, not the outpatient program through JBRI. However, your comments are greatly concerning, so I would like to put you in touch with our leadership team immediately so we can learn more. Please email our VP of Communications at estuart@barryrobinson.org so we can schedule a time at your convenience to speak. Thank you again!

My 15-yr old child completed in-resident care at BRC for approximately 6 months. We were provided family therapy, child had individual therapy, fantastic literature to work through power struggles and button busters to alleviate manipulation tactics. We were able to visit our child on two weekends as we adjusted to our new-normal lifestyle while the staff worked through a variety of issues with our child. Of course our child complained about the stay (rule enforcement) as I ve read other reviews posted by former residents. This review of BRC is meant to highlight the opportunities offered to rebellious/resistant teens suffering with suicidal ideation, disordered eating, runaways, self-harm, addiction and prior sexual trauma. Our child still slips into some habits but has the tools to acknowledge that this behavior is not helpful and is not helpful towards their future role as a functional adult. We heard (from our child) some issues regarding staff members, and these were upchanneled to the proper supervisors so both staff and child could work through perceived issues of injustice or allegations of unfairness. All in all, BRC was a beacon of hope in a very dark period of our lives and we are immensely grateful for all the resources provided to our entire family.

I stayed here for 5 and a half-ish months. While some people had pretty bad experiences I d say that BRC lived up to the positive reputation it holds and made me a genuinely happier, healthier, and better person overall. While it wasn t the best experience, as it is a facility at the end of the day, it was by far the best place I ve stayed, and much better than any lockdown facility in the nation.

HIPPA violation(s). Will let anyone call to speak to the children without confirming who they are.Will not provide medical paperwork and are diagnosing children but not providing what method used for diagnosis and do not seem to offer trauma specialized care.Most clinicians appear to be level 1 and either in training and or have just graduatedLook at previous lawsuits online and Reddit

After 3 inpatient stays over a 4 month period it was recommended we look at The Barry Robinson Center for our 16 year old. Our son completed a 6 month residency and during that time he benefited immensely from the treatment program for adolescents diagnosed with BPD. If you have an adolescent child who is battling mental health issues this may be the place that can provide them the coping skills and treatment plan to place them on a path for a happy life. Our family will be forever grateful for what the BRC did for not only our son but for our family.

I recently had to take my godchild for services after a stay at CHKD. Her actual provider as well as the admissions staff was very helpful and supportive while we were getting used to our new normal with her mental health. I would recommend BRC to ANYONE who needs these services

Don't send your kid here, it might seem like it helped if you already did but it causes too much trauma to actually be helpful. The staff are either really good or really bad with most of them being bad, they purposefully irritate or upset kids and that makes them stay longer.Try to find a GOOD outpatient.

All the parents saying their kids got the help they need must be blind. Faculty members mock the kids and have a power trip. I have ptsd from my treatment here. They re a money grab. I moved rooms a total of 8 times, not because my roommates didn t like me or had problems, but because they kept admitting people to the point where I was staying in the toddler s cabin (yes there are toddlers being mistreated here) isolated from people my own age until we had groups and school. Don t send your child here.
