Center for Discovery Danville is a higher level of care facility in Northern California that treats adolescents ages 10-18 of all genders for eating disorders that require more intensive care than outpatient treatment. Danville is nestled in the heart of the East Bay Area and the treatment center is nestled far off the highway about 30 minutes from San Francisco, which provides a sense of peace and solitude. Treatment modalities we offer include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure & response prevention (ERP), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).
In addition to receiving evidence-based therapies, patients all have the opportunity to put “joyful” back into movement through yoga and other activities. Discovery’s specialized binge eating disorder (BED) program, Path to Peace, is also offered at this location.
Insurances we accept include but are not limited to Anthem BC, HMC, Merced County, Sharp, and UHA. Please remember that the insurances we accept change frequently. Our insurance team will verify your coverage.
The facility has a main house, therapist cottage and a big garden full of flowers and vegetation allowing patients to have ample space to engage socially and clinically while being surrounded in a green eco-friendly environment. Thanks to the large outdoor garden, this location offers horticultural therapy. The facility also has a bocce ball court on the property.
