Eating Disorders
Eating disorders like anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and patterns combining aspects of anorexia and bulimia are not always obvious, encompassing a broad range of dysfunction that can also be an invisible challenge. Eating dysfunction ranks as the 2nd deadliest disorder after opioid addiction, which is why it’s incredibly important to get the right help.
Not sure if you need help?
We approach eating disorders within the context of our client’s entire mental health spectrum, addressing potential coexisting conditions such as OCD, addiction, depression, and anxiety.
Our multidisciplinary approach and personalized treatment plans are crafted with clinical judgment, providing dietitians, group activities promoting healthy living, and support for co-occurring disorders. Our goal is to provide holistic care that goes beyond the surface, empowering individuals to heal. Eating disorders are complicated so it's hard to tell if you need help. Are you or your loved one struggling, and unsure about seeking help? *This quiz should not be used to replace the recommendations or diagnoses provided by a medical or mental health professional. We encourage you to share your results with a mental healthcare professional who can help you determine the next steps that are right for you.
Eating disorders can be managed with the right help. Our comprehensive treatment approach involves a range of programming, including the expertise of dietitians and engaging group activities focused on healthy living. Additionally, we prioritize addressing co-occurring disorders such as addiction, depression, and anxiety, ensuring that individuals receive holistic care to support their overall well-being.

Personalized Treatments
We consider individual circumstances to make informed decisions about diagnosis and treatment options, providing personalized and effective care tailored to each patient’s unique situation. An individualized, integrated plan created by your personal care team may include treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Nutrition counseling
Certified dietitians help restore normal eating patterns and teach the importance of nutrition and a balanced diet.
Healthy Living Group
Along with nutrition education, you’ll learn the roles that physical activity, sleep, stress reduction, and mindfulness play in supporting the journey toward recovery and health.
Psychotherapy
Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy and behavioral therapy, psychotherapy helps patients develop healthier attitudes toward food and weight while equipping them with effective ways to cope with stressful situations.
Medication
Certain antidepressant medications like selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs such as Prozac and Paxil) and other non-antidepressant medications might be used to help control anxiety and depression associated with an eating disorder.
Group Therapy
Our therapy groups are led by experts in their field who have dedicated their lives to helping others. People with eating disorders might benefit from group therapy, where they can find that they are not alone, openly discussing their feelings and concerns with others who share common experiences and problems.
Family Therapy
Group meetings and education are available to our clients' partners, spouses, and children as part of our inclusive treatment strategy. Family therapy is part of an overall treatment program and is very important to success.
