About Oasis Eating Recovery

Restoring Hope, Healing Minds: Oasis Eating Disorders Recovery
— Your Path to a Better Tomorrow.

Small steps still move you forward

At Oasis Eating Recovery, we believe that healing is a journey of rediscovery, not just symptom management. Our treatment center for eating disorders in the Central Valley serves as a sanctuary for individuals navigating the complexities of disordered eating. We understand that asking for help is often the hardest step, which is why we have created a space that prioritizes compassion, dignity, and individualized care. Whether you are stepping down from a higher level of care or seeking support for the first time, our programs are designed to meet you exactly where you are.

We offer a comprehensive continuum of care that includes a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). These structured environments provide the stability needed to interrupt harmful behaviors while allowing clients to maintain connections with their daily lives. Our approach is rooted in the belief that recovery is possible for everyone, regardless of diagnosis or past struggles.

Wherever you are in your healing, we’re here

Who We Are

Oasis Eating Recovery is a specialized treatment center dedicated to helping adolescents and adults overcome the physical and emotional challenges of eating disorders. We treat a wide range of conditions, including Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder, and Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID). Unlike general mental health facilities, our programs are specifically tailored to address the unique biological and psychological needs of those with eating disorders.

Our team operates with a philosophy of weight-inclusive, body-positive care. We reject the notion that health has a specific “look” and instead focus on restoring overall well-being. By combining medical monitoring, nutritional rehabilitation, and therapeutic support, we help our clients rebuild a relationship with food that is based on nourishment rather than fear or control.

Our Mission: Accessible Eating Disorder Care Across the Central Valley

For too long, residents of the Central Valley have faced significant barriers to accessing specialized healthcare for eating disorders, often forcing families to travel to major cities like Los Angeles or San Francisco. Our mission is to bridge this gap by providing high-quality, evidence-based treatment right here in Fresno and Visalia. We are committed to serving our local communities—from Coarsegold to Prather and Los Banos—ensuring that geography is never an obstacle to recovery.

We strive to create an inclusive environment where every individual feels seen and heard. Our goal is to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health and eating disorders by providing education and advocacy within our community. We believe that recovery is for everybody, and we are dedicated to helping our clients reclaim their lives from the isolation of their illness.

You don't have to earn rest or care

Staff Qualifications

The core of our program is our multidisciplinary team of compassionate mental health professionals. We know that treating eating disorders requires more than just one perspective, which is why we have assembled a diverse group of specialists who collaborate on every case. Our staff includes licensed therapists, psychiatric providers, nurse practitioners, and dedicated support personnel who are all trained in the complexities of eating disorder recovery.

Registered Dietitians:

These professionals play a pivotal role in recovery, working closely with clients to debunk nutrition myths, restore physical balance, and create sustainable meal plans that support long-term health.

Psychiatric Providers:

Our outpatient psychiatry team manages medication and addresses co-occurring conditions, ensuring that the biological aspects of mental health are treated with the same attention as the behavioral ones.

Therapists:

Our clinicians are trained in specialized modalities and work to help clients uncover the root causes of their struggles, building resilience and self-awareness through individual and group sessions.

More than Just Eating Disorder Treatment: Supporting Mind, Body, and Emotional Well Being

Healing from an eating disorder involves much more than just changing eating habits; it requires a holistic approach that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit. We recognize that eating disorders often exist alongside other challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, or neurodivergence. Our treatment plans are comprehensive, addressing these co-occurring conditions simultaneously to ensure lasting healing.

We utilize a variety of evidence-based therapeutic modalities to support this holistic growth. By integrating different approaches, we help clients develop a robust toolbox of coping skills that extend far beyond the dinner table.

  • Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy: also known as CBT, this therapy helps individuals identify and challenge distorted thoughts and beliefs, replacing negative patterns with healthier, more realistic perspectives.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy: DBT focuses on emotional regulation and distress tolerance, teaching clients how to manage intense feelings without resorting to disordered behaviors.
  • Trauma Therapy: recognizing that trauma is often a driver of disordered eating, we offer trauma-informed care, including EMDR, to help clients process past experiences safely.
  • Experiential Therapies: we incorporate art therapy, movement, and mindfulness to help clients reconnect with their bodies in a positive way, fostering self-expression and reducing stress.

Our Facility

Our Fresno facility serves as the primary hub for our intensive treatment programs. Designed to feel like a “home away from home,” it offers a warm and welcoming environment that stands in stark contrast to sterile clinical settings. We believe that the physical environment plays a crucial role in recovery, and we have created spaces that encourage connection and relaxation.

The facility features comfortable group therapy rooms, private spaces for individual sessions, and a supportive dining area where clients participate in supervised meals. This setting allows us to provide real-time support during mealtimes, which are often the most challenging part of the day. For those in the Visalia area, our secondary location offers accessible mental health support and treatments for those with less intensive medical needs, ensuring that care is available close to home.

Wherever you are in your healing, we’re here
