About Our Recovery Center

Eating disorders have become more prevalent over the last twenty years. They can be chronic, progressive, and, in severe cases, fatal. They include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder. These conditions involve complex psychological and physical factors that are difficult to overcome alone.

Eating disorders affect individuals and families deeply. They disrupt personal relationships, professional goals, and future potential. If left untreated, they can become lifelong and debilitating medical and psychological conditions. Recovery is challenging and requires intensive and sustained treatment.

 Many individuals fear hospitalization, which is sometimes necessary in advanced cases. However, it can disrupt family life, relationships, school, and careers. It is also the most costly and restrictive form of treatment and is considered a last resort at EDRCA. 

Our philosophy is that “Recovery takes place in your life.” We provide structured outpatient treatment that allows patients to prioritize recovery while maintaining daily responsibilities. We help individuals reduce and eliminate symptoms through consistent therapeutic support.

Our approach includes skills training, insight development, behavior modification, emotional growth, and nutritional care. Each case is treated individually by a multidisciplinary team of doctoral-level clinicians and supervised trainees with ongoing consultation and feedback.

Treatment includes individual therapy, family therapy, and referrals to psychiatrists, physicians, and dietitians. We believe committed participation leads to symptom reduction and relapse prevention skills. Our goal is full recovery and long-term resilience against relapse.
