Walden Clinic in Braintree
Our Braintree clinic is located in the heart of the south shore and is easily accessible for individuals living in the greater Boston and south shore areas via car or the red line. Our warm and inclusive space has recently been renovated and expanded to better accommodate the growing need for specialized eating disorder services. We are dedicated to treating children, teens and adults of all genders and their families and practice therapies that have been proven to support lasting recovery. Family-Based Treatment, which is used with the children and teenagers in our care, gives parents and/or caretakers an active and positive role in helping their child to reduce eating disorder behaviors, stabilize weight and resume proper adolescent development. We also encourage the involvement of family and loved ones in the treatment of adults in our care. We understand that eating disorders thrive in isolation so we do our best to ensure that you have a strong support system throughout your treatment journey. Our compassionate care team looks forward to meeting you and helping you to meet your recovery goals.
Walden Behavioral Care is contracted with most major insurance companies. Learn more today.

Walden Stories
Ben’s Road Toward Recovery
Professional cyclist Ben Frederick developed an eating disorder when he was forced to stop competing after being thrown from his bike during a race resulting in a traumatic brain injury. Ben shares his story of perseverance and strength as he learned to navigate the road to a full life in recovery.
Coming Out Day
As proud allies, we are proud to foster a community, both for our patients and our employees, that values inclusivity and diversity. For this year’s “National Coming Out Day” some of our amazing employees decided to share their coming out stories in order to help others feel comfortable in doing so for themselves.
Walden on Gratitude
This year marks Walden Behavioral Care’s 15th Anniversary. Our staff came together to reflect on what makes working at Walden, and with you, so special.
90% of patients said their experience with their clinician was positive in helping them acquire coping skills and gaining insight into recovery.
The most helpful part of my experience at Walden was: meeting people who are going through the same things and gaining understanding and insight into my eating disorder.
“When I entered treatment, I felt as though I was in a safe space and it stayed that way my entire time at Walden. I felt very supported by all the people around me.”
93% said they felt welcomed by the staff when they began the program
“I learned a lot from informative sessions about the way our eating disorders work. The education around nutrition and food helped me understand what my body needs to thrive.”
“The staff is phenomenal. I truly couldn’t be happier with the skills I’ve learned during my time here. Thank you so much for saving me.”
