A message from the founders The Center for Discovery and Adolescent Change was born in 1997 out of a lifelong friendship. Having known each other for over 30 years, our vision was to create an opportunity for treatment programs that would profoundly change the lives of young people. Prior to Discovery, California families had few choices other than long-term, out-of-state programs for their struggling teens. Discovery programs were designed to be local, short-term, intensive interventions that would include parents as part of the treatment solution, allowing the child to return home as quickly as possible. At Discovery, we assist hundreds of teens and their families annually across six California campuses, with several new programs in other states planned in the next year. Our core clinical staff brings 20 years of experience and collaboration to Discovery, having designed and implemented some of the most successful and well respected adult and adolescent acute inpatient and residential programs in California.
As CFO and CEO we remain highly involved in the day-to-day operations of Discovery and are personally committed to attracting and training extremely talented and compassionate professionals who are truly the heart of Discovery.

Eating Disorder Program Center for Discovery's Eating Disorder programs were the first comprehensive residential treatment programs in California dedicated solely to the treatment of adolescent males and females. The individualized and intensive treatment experience, under twenty-four hour supervision, is particularly effective in identifying and addressing the destructive behaviors and underlying emotional issues of anorexia, binge eating, bulimia, and compulsive overeating. Discovery utilizes highly skilled health care professionals and each member of our team demonstrates a deep commitment to the healing and well being of teens and their families. Our homes are located in Downey, Lakewood, Menlo Park, and Whittier, CA. |

Dual Diagnosis Program The Dual Diagnosis programs at Center for Discovery were created to help adolescent males and females who struggle with addiction, depression, anxiety disorders, relationship disturbances, and emotional and behavioral patterns. The goal of Discovery's Dual Diagnosis programs are to therapeutically intervene in behavioral and relational patterns thereby creating an opportunity for dramatic and enduring changes for both the teen and his or her family. After each resident is carefully assessed, a comprehensive treatment plan is designed. Each treatment plan targets the resident's specific needs and guides the treatment experience from admission through discharge and continuing care. We have homes in La Habra, Long Beach, and Whittier, CA. |
