Monte Nido Eating Disorder Center of San Diego Treatment Facility for Eating Disorders and Exercise Addiction to Open March 1, 2016

Monte Nido offers day treatment and intensive outpatient programs for adults and adolescents with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and exercise addiction.

Monte Nido Holdings, LLC, a leading provider of treatment for adults and adolescent girls with eating disorders and exercise addiction, acquired the Eating Disorder Center of San Diego in December 2015.  It is now known as the Monte Nido Eating Disorder Center of San Diego. The facility is located in the Solana Beach neighborhood.

The newly rebranded center offers day treatment and intensive outpatient programs for adults and adolescents with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and exercise addiction. Monte Nido’s Eating Disorder Center of San Diego is an affiliate of Monte Nido and joins its network of 18 centers in six states, including California, Oregon, Massachusetts, New York, Florida and Pennsylvania.

Monte Nido has performed and published the only decade-long post-graduate outcome study on residential eating disorder clients. The proprietary Monte Nido Level System helps patients achieve a clear understanding of their eating and/or exercise disorders, the disorders’ effect on their lives and treatment necessary for personal recovery.

“The Monte Nido philosophy includes restoring biochemical functioning and nutritional balance, and implementing healthy eating and exercise habits in order to help patients change destructive behaviors,” commented Kristine Jackson, LCSW, Clinical Director of Monte Nido. “As with all Monte Nido programs, clients are seen by a comprehensive and experienced team, including recovered professionals.  Additionally, we believe in a clients ability to become fully recovered.”
