Psychologists allege bullying by boss at state mental hospitals
The Director of Psychology for Southern Nevada Adult Mental Health Services is a bully who is running off colleagues, according to half a dozen mental health professionals who spoke with the Current.
Five psychologists and one trainee who were employed by the state to give care to patients with mental illness say their former boss, Dr. Shera Bradley, put their mental health at risk. They also suggest patient care is suffering because the turnover keeps the hospitals understaffed.
Bradley did not respond to numerous requests for comment.
Since 2016, Bradley has overseen four mental health facilities in Southern Nevada — Rawson-Neal, West Charleston Clinic, East Las Vegas Clinic Forensic Outpatient Services and Stein Forensic.
In addition to her position with the state, Bradley teaches courses as an adjunct at UNLV, where she received her doctorate in 2007. She started working in private practice in Las Vegas in 2008.
