About Eating Recovery Center Denver - Franklin St
ERC Denver - Franklin St.’s residential program lights the path to recovery from eating disorders for medically stable children and adolescents of all genders. Clients receive 24-hour support—including continued observation and daytime medical and psychiatric supervision—from a team of experts who specialize in eating disorders and other co-occurring mental health conditions. Through personalized plans that include therapy, education, medical support, and family involvement, ERC helps clients achieve optimal physical and mental health.
Develop a Peaceful Relationship with Food
ERC helps clients find peace using both evidence-based therapies and supportive, structured meal planning. Individual, group, and family therapy sessions give clients the chance to explore what matters most to them, build coping skills, and gain insight from peers who share their struggles. Meals play a crucial role: with the support of registered dietitians, clients learn to approach food in a way that transforms it from a source of fear into a pathway toward lasting recovery.
Feel Comfortable in a Calm Atmosphere
At ERC’s flagship location, everything from the hanging art to the paint colors to the spa bathrooms was chosen by current and former clients. Spaces that are most challenging, such as bathrooms and dining spaces, have been renovated and feature quieter flooring, noise reduction, and outdoor-themed, sensory-nurturing natural lighting. Clients stay in cozy bedrooms they can personalize with items from home, and a state-of-the-art teaching kitchen provides hands-on experience with meal planning and emotional regulation.
Continue Outpatient Care Just Steps Away
With day treatment and intensive outpatient programs also on site, ERC’s step-down model of care provides convenient support at every phase of recovery. Their day programs run 5–7 days a week and give time to practice skills in real life. For added flexibility, intensive outpatient (IOP) care is offered 3–4 times a week, allowing clients to continue school, work, or family life while receiving therapy, nutritional counseling, and supported meals.
