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.

The Path to Peace program is founded upon principles of representation and belonging, inclusivity, shame resilience, being trauma-informed, and providing weight-neutral care.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery.
