TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY: At Center for Discovery, we are passionate about providing compassionate care that utilizes the very best evidence-based treatment options. For more than two decades we have helped thousands of clients discover their path to the full and rewarding lives they deserve. With us, you will have a team of experts who will design a treatment plan that’s just as unique as you are. You will learn about what’s underlying your eating disorder. You will practice new coping skills, including how to forge a healthier relationship with food through hands-on meal preparation. You will join us at one of our intimate estate- style homes or small outpatient centers that promote healing and personalized attention. And when you’re ready to return home, you’ll continue to receive recovery support for life through our Aftercare Program.

We think it is possible to recover from an eating disorder and define recovery as: Our treatment goals are to help our clients regain a healthy life, deal with clinical and dietary issues and develop the necessary tools so a full and worthwhile life may be experienced. Center For Discovery seeks the family’s involvement in treatment in order to understand the resident’s issues and develop techniques to become an integral part of the support team for long-term recovery.
