Center for Discovery Fairfax is a residential eating disorder treatment center that has provided residential and partial hospitalization treatment to patients of all genders ages 10-18. Center for Discovery Fairfax serves Northern Virginia, Washington D.C. and Southern Maryland, including Baltimore.
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.
This adolescent gender-inclusive treatment center provides patients with group therapy, structured and monitored mealtimes, group social events, family therapy and individual therapy – all with a Health at Every Size® (HAES®) philosophy. The center’s homelike setting allows patients to practice dialectal behavior therapy (DBT)-informed skills in a real-life setting. Yoga therapy is offered twice weekly.
