Center for Discovery Portland

With over 25 years of expertise, Center for Discovery has been treating eating disorders using evidence-based therapies supported by research. Their Portland location has been providing outpatient care to adolescent and adult clients since 2016. The continuum of care includes an intensive outpatient program (IOP) and partial hospitalization program (PHP) for the treatment of primary eating disorders and co-occurring mental health disorders. The therapeutic modalities offered include dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), exposure & response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness-based approaches. Their expert staff uphold a trauma-informed philosophy in their therapeutic approaches, seeking to understand the unique experiences that have impacted each individual.
Center for Discovery Portland offers a specialized binge eating disorder program, Path to Peace. With a connection-focused approach rather than a corrective one, this program was created to address the unique aspects of binging and chronic dieting. The Path to Peace program is founded upon principles of representation and belonging, inclusivity, shame resilience, being trauma-informed, and providing weight-neutral care.
