Treatment Options
New Dawn’s programs are designed to restore physiological, emotional and interpersonal harmony in the lives of individuals struggling with eating disorders. A brief description of New Dawn’s treatment options along with an overview of the program components is discussed below.
Initial Assessment
New Dawn Eating Disorders Recovery Center in California provides comprehensive psychological and nutritional pretreatment evaluations in order to make accurate diagnoses and provide the basis upon which appropriate treatment planning decisions are made. In addition to assessments conducted at our Sausalito clinic, clients are required to be assessed by their medical provider in order to establish that either outpatient or residential care is the most appropriate level of intervention. Sometimes clients are referred to a psychiatrist when psychotropic medication appears indicated.
Residential Treatment
Our Residential Facility located in San Francisco offers empirically-supported, multidisciplinary treatment for adult women suffering from anorexia, bulimia, and binge-eating disorder. Our approach emphasizes self-responsibility and empowers patients to learn the tools they need to recover. Our warm and dedicated staff provides the necessary balance of compassion, deep respect, kindness, structure, and boundaries.
Day Treatment
Our Sausalito outpatient clinic offers eight hours or more of treatment per day, four to five days per week. Day Treatment can prevent hospitalization for some individuals and for others it is a powerful step-down intervention following inpatient or residential treatment.
Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
New Dawn Eating Disorders IOP is developed for clients who require a significant addition to outpatient treatment in order to lessen their eating disorder symptoms. The IOP provides comprehensive treatment while allowing the client to retain autonomy in her normal day-to-day activities.
Outpatient Program (OP)
Following participation in IOP, New Dawn Eating Disorders OP provides customized treatment programs to meet individual needs.
