Monte Nido Vista, located in Agoura Hills, CA, is a residential treatment program exclusively for adults seeking treatment for Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, or Exercise Addiction.

Monte Nido’s treatment approach focuses on the restoration of physiological and nutritional balance, implementation of healthy eating and exercise routines, elimination of harmful behaviors, and development of motivation and treatment engagement.

Our objective is to help each client achieve a clear understanding of their eating and/or exercise disorder and its effect on their life, as well as an individualized appreciation of what is necessary for their personal recovery.

Monte Nido Clementine Calabasas, located in Calabasas, CA, and Monte Nido Clementine Malibu Lake, located in Agoura Hills, CA, are residential treatment programs exclusively for adolescents seeking treatment for Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, or Exercise Addiction.

At Clementine, we support adolescents and their families on the path to full recovery by preparing each adolescent to navigate the challenges of life free of the eating disorder. We provide the empathy, education, and support to families as partners in the recovery process.

We help each adolescent to replace the eating disorder with healthy skills and a deep understanding of how to live a life that reflects their own unique individuality.

Monte Nido Eating Disorder Center of Los Angeles, located in Los Angeles, CA, is a primary eating disorder day treatment program exclusively for adults seeking treatment for Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, or Exercise Addiction. Through partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programming, clients participate in group and individual therapy, benefit from Monte Nido’s clinical, medical, psychiatric and nutritional expertise and experience real life challenges.

We are seeking a per diem (PRN) Registered Dietitian to join the Monte Nido team. The Registered Dietitian is a critical member of the leadership and clinical teams and collaborates routinely with all disciplines to achieve optimal client care.

Nutrition programming across all of our programs originates from the same core foundations of health, freedom from eating disordered behaviors, and developmentally appropriate progression toward self-trust and internally-directed eating. With this solid foundation, our clients move through the early stages of food relationship repair to the later stages of growth and expansion into a recovered life.

Our HAES-informed Nutritional Care Reflects

  • Recognition that healthy, recovered people come in all shapes and sizes
  • Recognition that all bodies deserve to be nourished and experience satiety
  • Behavior-focused, rather than weight-focused philosophies
  • Awareness that weight loss attempts and focus are contraindicated for recovery from all eating disorder diagnoses
  • Kitchens and food environments that are open and accessible as in a homelike setting
  • Pay Rate: $35.33 - $49.51/ hr (based on education, credentials, licensure, and experience)
  • Anticipated Schedule: Per Diem, Daytime hours
