Through personalized plans that include therapy, education, medical support, and family involvement, ERC helps patients achieve optimal physical and mental health.

Thrive with a Comprehensive, Personalized Approach

Patients at ERC engage in evidence-based therapies and develop recovery skills for real-world situations. Individual, group, and family therapy sessions give patients the chance to explore what matters most to them, build coping skills, and gain insight from peers who share their struggles. Registered dietitians provide supportive, structured meal planning that emphasizes balance, variety, and flexibility.

Feel Comfortable in Healing Surroundings

Just north of Baltimore in beautiful suburban surroundings, ERC’s residential facility is a safe, nurturing environment. Patients stay in cozy bedrooms, and the child and adolescent units are designed with youth in mind. A state-of-the-art teaching kitchen provides hands-on experience with meal planning and emotional regulation, and an inviting café allows patients to practice mindful eating during mealtimes.

Continue Outpatient Care Across the Street

The buildings are in the same campus-like environment, offering a safer, more supportive atmosphere that promotes collaboration and closeness. Frequent communication and coordination with outpatient providers helps ensure continuity of care and positive outcomes.

The program prioritizes time for academics as part of treatment, with education specialists who coordinate with schools, reduce anxiety around missed work, and provide individualized support so patients can focus on recovery while continuing their education.
