About Center for Discovery – Del Mar – San Diego
The Center for Discovery Del Mar is an eating disorder treatment center in San Diego, California. They provide residential treatment for females and non-binary adults. They accept those who have a co-occuring disorder such as substance abuse disorder.
Through counseling and building positive relationships with food, healing is possible. The staff at this center focus their treatments on trauma-focused nutrition therapy. They’ll collaborate with you and work to get you in tune with your whole body, including your nervous system and your weight.

At Center for Discovery, your treatment team will treat you as a whole person including getting to the root of your addictive tendencies. I like that they offer a full year of aftercare support after you leave the program.
