Therapeutic Approaches in Treatment for
Eating Disorders

Our eating disorder treatment center uses an integrated, comprehensive approach that combines evidence-based, effective treatment modalities with our deep understanding of the complex psychology and underlying neurobiology of eating disorders.

Healing begins with assessing where you are today. Our multidisciplinary team of physicians, psychiatrists, nurses, therapists, and registered dietitians will assess your unique circumstances and collaborate with you to develop a comprehensive plan. We work side by side with you throughout your recovery journey in our program.

Across our outpatient and inpatient treatment settings, we believe in thoughtful psychiatric care and medication management, compassionate around-the-clock nursing in our inpatient and residential programs, frequent individual therapy, supportive family therapy, intensive group psychotherapy and therapeutic nutritional restoration. Our ability to handle acute medical issues and provide specialized nursing care differentiates our services from other eating disorder residential treatment facilities in the region.

All of our programs are highly structured and supportive, with intentionally designed exposures and real-life challenges to assist in maintaining long-term recovery. Whatever you come seeking help for, you can expect some combination of the following therapeutic approaches to support your healing process.

PRIMARY THERAPIES

Exposure Response Prevention (ERP):

Our program acknowledges the link between anxiety, fear and eating disorders. ERP is one of the most effective treatment approaches for anxiety-based disorders.

Depth-Oriented Therapy:

A depth-oriented approach is a way of seeing and understanding. This approach centers on a fundamental assumption that healing is a return to an original, intrinsic state of wholeness.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT):

DBT is a cognitive-behavioral treatment that has been demonstrated to be effective in helping individuals develop skills to manage severe emotional dysregulation and distress tolerance, learn to be in interpersonal relationships effectively, and develop mindfulness skills.

Compassion-Focused Therapy:

The practice of self-compassion is an essential part of the eating disorder treatment journey and impacts much of the work of eating disorder recovery. It is a door to learning how to treat ourselves differently. This practice centers on an understanding that loving-kindness and self-compassion is an antidote to shame, self-criticism, and suffering.

EXPERIENTIAL & SOMATIC THERAPIES

Experiential and Somatic Therapies support the process of healing not only from an eating disorder, but also from co-occurring issues such as trauma symptoms experienced in the body, emotion dysregulation, anxiety, and depression.

LEARN MORE

NUTRITION THERAPY & DIETARY PHILOSPHY

We teach that all foods can fit, and work from a non-diet approach that recognizes balance, moderation, and the importance of variety in choices.

LEARN MORE

NURSING & ACUTE CARE

Eating disorders have a myriad of medical complications that require monitoring. Eating disorders can also occur alongside other mental health issues like depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and suicidal thoughts and self-injury. From a medical perspective, these issues must be addressed simultaneously to recover from the eating disorder and discover a healthy path forward.

LEARN MORE

FAMILY APPROACH

Family and friends can be a valuable source of support and strength on the journey to recovery. Our clinical team places a strong emphasis on involving family and loved ones in the treatment process.
