Monte Nido East Bay
Monte Nido East Bay offers state-of-the-art, evidenced-based residential programming for eating disorders and co-occurring presentations. Located in the San Francisco Bay Area city of Lafayette, California, Monte Nido East Bay provides programming for all genders.
Our treatment approach focuses on the restoration of physiological and nutritional balance, the implementation of healthy eating and exercise routines, the elimination of destructive behaviors and the development of motivation and treatment engagement. We also emphasize the development of insight and coping skills for the emotional and psychological issues that create risk for relapse and can represent barriers to becoming fully recovered. Our objective is to help each client achieve a clear understanding of their eating and/or exercise disorder and its effect on their life, as well as an individualized appreciation of what is necessary for their personal recovery.
Monte Nido’s eating disorder treatment center in the East Bay instills a treatment approach that focuses on the implementation of healthy eating and exercise routines, restoring physiological, emotional, and nutritional balance, the removal of self-destructive actions, and the development of motivation to attain a fully recovered lifestyle.
In each course of care for bulimia nervosa, anorexia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and other eating disorders, our objective is to help each client achieve a clear understanding of their eating and/or exercise disorder the ways it has affected their life, and also a deeper personal understanding of how to achieve a full recovery.

A Letter from Monte Nido East Bay's Clinical Director
Here at Monte Nido, we understand that choosing to enter residential treatment for an eating disorder, is a decision that likely involves many challenging feelings. As the Clinical Director, I also acknowledge the great courage one must find within, to take action with the decision to enter treatment. It is our goal to honor that courage, with our commitment to listen to & support you, with unconditional positive regard. Through the process of reflection and self- exploration, we will walk with you, compassionately, in a warm and nurturing setting where healing and discovering your healthy self can take place. We have learned that recovery is a dynamic process, which takes great patience & understanding with oneself, but also from the treatment team and loved ones involved. Here at Monte Nido East Bay, the team and I are proud to be able to take this journey with you and your loved ones. We have witnessed full recovery, and we believe that it is possible. The first step is reaching out and accepting support; the rest of the journey leads to developing the belief that each moment of healing and growth is possible. Together we believe. Welcome to Monte Nido East Bay.
Sincerely,
Richard Barnes, LMFT
