About
With more than 25 years of experience, Center for Discovery has been dedicated to treating eating disorders through research-backed therapeutic methods. Since 2016, their Portland facility has been offering outpatient services for both adolescents and adults. The comprehensive care model includes an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and partial hospitalization program (PHP), focusing on the treatment of primary eating disorders as well as co-occurring mental health challenges. Their therapeutic strategies encompass dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness practices. The skilled team adheres to a trauma-informed care philosophy, aiming to comprehend the distinct experiences that influence each person’s journey.
Center for Discovery Portland features a tailored program for binge eating disorders called Path to Peace. This initiative, which emphasizes building connections over mere correction, was designed to tackle the specific challenges associated with binge eating and ongoing dieting habits. The Path to Peace program is based on principles such as representation and inclusion, resilience to shame, trauma awareness, and a commitment to weight-neutral support.
