Eating Disorder Group Therapy

Group therapy is a form of eating disorder treatment that provides an opportunity for a deeper understanding of self and others. Restrictive eating, binging and purging can be a way to communicate internal distress. Patients suffering from anorexia, bulimia, or other eating disorders, can all work together to overcome their fears and anxiety.

Psychotherapy Treatment

Psychotherapy works to translate this cry for help into something that can be understood and addressed. Treatment includes several different approaches to therapy, including cognitive, psycho-dynamic, and behavioral.

Group Fitness Training Therapy

Beginning fitness training serves as a milestone for patients who have achieved a healthy weight and can now begin to incorporate more physical activity into their daily routine. Individual assessments help patients learn to debunk their body myths and develop a healthy approach to personal fitness.

Group Dance Therapy

Dance therapy helps patients reconnect with their feelings and communicate on another level. Movement encourages individuals to step outside of their mind and reclaim their bodies, giving them courage to find beauty and freedom in their own rhythms.

Group Art therapy

Art therapy allows patients to express themselves creatively, providing another window into each individual and a different way to promote understanding and communication.

Meal Therapy

Meal therapy, nutrition, and post-meal groups are led by staff and dietitian. Staff and patients plan, eat, and review meals as a group. Patients begin to face and overcome their fear of eating with supportive feedback and encouragement that sees them through before, during, and after each meal.
