Programs at Farrington Specialty Centers
Neossia Partial Hospitalization Program
Neossia is greek for “a nest or a place of refuge.” Just like birds entrust the nest to care for their babies while they are away, Neossia is a place of protection and nurturing for all who walk through our doors.
Neossia’s Partial Hospitalization Program operates under the belief that connection is truly healing. Those recovering from an eating disorder have a genuine need to be seen and heard, not for the eating disorder, but for their authentic soul.
Our program is personal. The treatment center staff knows each and every client and family we serve by name. We wrap our arms around those we serve, care for them in their journey, and welcome them into the Neossia nest as family.
