Virtual ARFID Treatment Program
This 10-week intensive outpatient programming (IOP) for ARFID provides remote care and support for children and adolescents ages 10-18 and their families. ARFID is more than just picky eating; it’s an eating disorder characterized by an aversion to food due to sensory characteristics, intense fear, and lack of interest in food. ARFID can lead to malnutrition, adverse health outcomes, and difficulty engaging in age-appropriate activities, but can be fully treated with our specialized, evidence-based care.

Frequently asked questions
Monte Nido offers both Virtual and In-Person programs, each providing compassionate, evidence-based care designed to support lasting recovery. Both settings include Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) levels of care for adults and adolescents. Our In-Person continuum also includes Residential and Inpatient programs, offering 24-hour support for clients who need higher levels of structure, medical care, or stabilization.
In-Person treatment takes place at one of our Monte Nido, Monte Nido Clementine, Monte Nido Rosewood, or Monte Nido Walden locations nationwide. These settings allow for direct, in-person connection with staff and peers, shared meals, and on-site therapeutic support.
Virtual treatment provides the same level of clinical and nutritional programming as our in-person PHP and IOP programs but is designed with the virtual environment at the core. The programming is tailored to deliver outcomes virtually with rotating specialists throughout the day to provide engaging curriculum and ensure safety to support clients in their homes. Virtual PHP also offers remote medical monitoring by a registered nurse. This option offers flexibility and accessibility for those who may not live near a Monte Nido location or prefer to receive care from home. Monte Nido’s virtual offering also include specialty programs such as LGBTQIA+, ARFID, Binge Eating Disorder, Family Based Therapy informed, and others designed to meet the diverse needs of our community.
Whether in-person or virtual, clients receive individualized care from a multidisciplinary team committed to helping them restore a balanced relationship with food, body, and self.
