Description Walden Behavioral Care's mission is to offer specialized eating disorder support at all levels of care for individuals of all genders. Since 2003, we have helped more than 22,000 individuals and their families progress in their healing journeys using an evidence-based, personalized approach to care.
We have locations in Massachusetts (Amherst, Braintree, Dedham, Peabody, Waltham, and Westborough), Connecticut (Guilford), and Georgia (Alpharetta and Dunwoody). In October 2020, Walden opened its Center for Recovery, a new state-of-the-art hospital located in Dedham, MA. Walden’s Center for Recovery is the largest 24-hour inpatient and residential care facility for adolescents and adults with eating disorders in the United States.
Monte Nido & Affiliates specializes in the treatment of eating disorders for all genders, for all levels of care, and includes five distinct clinical programs: Monte Nido, Walden, Clementine, Oliver-Pyatt Centers and Rosewood. For over two decades, our tenured and expert staff—which includes recovered professionals—has delivered treatment that leads to full recovery.
Additional information including outlined treatment offerings, directions, and contact information for all of our sites is available at waldeneatingdisorders.com.
