Center for Discovery Tampa is an outpatient center that provides partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient levels of care to patients of all genders and all ages who are struggling with an eating disorder. This treatment facility is located in South Tampa, near historic Hyde Park Village and is easily accessible from Interstate 275 and the Selmon Expressway. It serves patients from Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco and Manatee Counties. 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.
Dietary Program: Handling Eating Disorder Treatment with CARE
Healing, growth and a positive relationship with food is possible with the Center for Discovery Dietary Program. Our approach the CARE-CFD Model, which stands for “consistent attuned relational eating.” This means patients have the steadiness of a dietary plan that is adaptable to what’s happening in their life. The CARE-CFD Model embraces: trauma-focused nutrition therapy; collaboration between patients and the care team; responsiveness to the whole body, including being in tune with the nervous system; and weight inclusivity.
