About Timberline Knolls Residential Treatment Center

Choosing where to receive care for an eating disorder, the effects of trauma, mental illness, or addiction can seem overwhelming. The most important thing to focus on is finding a place that is right for you. Your experiences are different from others, and the care you receive needs to be tailored to meet your needs. 

The Timberline Knolls Experience 

Everything about Timberline Knolls was designed to stand out from other facilities by focusing on the ways women and girls most optimally respond to treatment. From our stunning campus and contemporary housing lodges to our extensive amenities and use of evidence-based therapies, we have built the Timberline Knolls experience to provide you with the highest level of comfort in a retreatlike setting. We are a place that initiates transformation; a place where you can find true and lasting healing. 

Female-Specific Care 

We have crafted the treatment process to address the specific challenges women and adolescent girls face. By solely treating females, we are able to address the concerns that are unique to this population so that they can gain the most benefit from their time in our care. 

We have also learned that when females receive care among other females, it is easier for them to respond in open and honest ways that would otherwise feel intimidating in the presence of male residents. Removing this pressure helps women and girls thrive in their recovery experience. 

Joining together over shared experiences and challenges, women and girls also have the opportunity to develop transformative friendships during their time at Timberline Knolls. These relationships strengthen the therapeutic process and allow for lifelong encouragement and support. 

Trauma-Informed Approach 

Recognizing that many women and girls who are suffering from eating disorders, mood disorders, or addiction have a history of trauma, we use an approach to care that addresses deeply rooted experiences that may have prevented you from healing. 

Our trauma-informed approach takes into account the many aspects that might have contributed to the onset of mental health or addiction concerns. It is not uncommon for a traumatic experience to trigger distressing emotions and concerning behaviors, and that is something that must be confronted while in a safe treatment environment 

Our staff is trained to be aware of the impact trauma can have on an individual and how those types of experiences can cause varying responses to the therapeutic process. The therapies we use also help women and girls work through unresolved trauma as they advance in their recovery. 

Making a Real-Life Difference 

Through our individualized approach to care, we are able to empower girls and women to create opportunities for themselves and transform their lives through a commitment to personal growth and change. 

We strive to help those in our care to not only develop the coping skills needed to be successful once they leave Timberline Knolls, but also to feel confident in their ability to confront future challenges. 

At Timberline Knolls, our goal is to make a real-life difference.

My experience with a nearly six week long stay here was very positive! I learned new behaviors to replace my old destructive ones and achieved sobriety here. All of which I have been able to continue because of my treatment at this facility! I highly recommend this place!
