Monte Nido Clementine Twin Lakes provides residential eating disorder treatment for female-identifying adolescents in a home-like setting. Located just west of Washington, DC, in Clifton, Virginia, we offer individualized, outcome-backed treatment with a multi-disciplinary team for all eating disorder diagnoses including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, OSFED, as well as co-occurring disorders. Treatment is integrated with personalized clinical and nutritional care as well as comprehensive academic and family support.
Clementine Twin Lakes truly saved my life in so many ways. It was my second residential treatment center, after first being at a Clementine location in South Miami, and I can confidently say it is an extraordinary place to recover.
My therapist was kind, supportive, and always willing to listen to whatever was on my mind. The family therapy sessions—though challenging—were incredibly effective, helping me navigate recovery with my parents’ support. The dietitian was especially amazing and guided me through some of the darkest times of my life with invaluable advice.
The entire staff—from the clinical director and assistant clinical director to the RCs, nurses, and even the chef—were always there for me. Their compassion, dedication, and encouragement made me feel safe and cared for every step of the way. I miss them all dearly.
When I first arrived at Clementine, I was completely blinded to how sick I really was. All I wanted to do was restrict and exercise. But Clementine Twin Lakes helped me rebuild my life and become a stronger, healthier version of myself. Since leaving, I’ve remained in strong recovery, and I know I owe so much of that to the incredible care I received there.
I would 100% recommend Clementine Twin Lakes to anyone struggling with an eating disorder. It is a place filled with hope, healing, and people who truly care.

My daughter spent almost four months here at Clementine and made amazing progress. It definitely was not easy.. but everyone including the RC's, therapists, nurses were so helpful and caring and i couldn't have been more pleased how supportive they all were during some difficult days. Even though this was one of the hardest things my child and ourselves have had to go through, our experience here was very positive and i would highly recommend this center for treatment.

We had to save our daughter out of there after a week or so being there. The approach to her needs were terrible. Everyone is treated the same way, no individualized approach. No one was answering the emails. I sent several emails to the program manager and the nutritionist, never heard back from them. One incident after another got us so worried that we had to rescue her. The system was such that we felt we would be better off at home than in that program. Worse came after we got her out and found out that they had reported us to the child protective services!! and we had to deal with that too. This really proved to us that we made the right decision to get her out of there.
I am a physician myself and had spoken with the psychiatrist there a couple of times. Was very surprised that the reported us to CPS, when we voluntarily took my daughter there to get help!
Nevertheless, with all fairness, I believe if your child is dying from malnutrition and anorexia, it may be ok to take them there, so they can force feed them. But for the other conditions and eating disorders I certainly doubt about the place.

I’m fairly certain they helped save my daughters life. While it wasn’t easy on her, she has returned stronger, hopeful, and happier. They held my hand through most of the process and provided great education - even through covid. While I don’t wish ED on anyone, I would recommend Clementine if your child needs help. They treat the mind. and not just the body our children inhabit. Edit: we’re now over a year out of treatment and my child is still in strong recovery.
