Care Options

Levels of Care

Eating disorders interfere with healthy eating habits, potentially causing weight changes, poor mental health, and physical harm. Treatment addresses underlying thoughts and beliefs, aiming to heal relationships with food. Weight restoration and other medical interventions stabilize physical health.
Residential
Residential eating disorder treatment provides intensive medical and therapeutic care in a safe, structured setting with 24/7 monitoring, meal-time support, therapy, and services for weight restoration as needed.
Day Treatment
In a PHP, patients live at home but follow an intensive schedule of treatment. Most programs require you to be on-site for about 40 hours per week.
Intensive Outpatient Program
An intensive outpatient program (IOP) falls between inpatient care and traditional outpatient services, with therapy and skills-building activities designed to support recovery and provide flexibility. IOP is ideal for those needing support but not the 24/7 care of a residential facility.
Outpatient
Outpatient treatment offers flexible therapeutic and medical care without the need to stay overnight in a hospital or inpatient facility. Outpatient care typically offers a range of therapies and medical interventions individuals can attend alongside daily life.
Virtual & In-Home Care
The delivery of therapeutic services utilizing technology such as video conferencing, online messaging or phone calls, allowing for flexibility, comfort and increased access to care.
Co-Occurring Disorders
Conditions like depression, substance use, and trauma can co-occur with eating disorders. Many programs provide co-occurring eating disorder treatment for comprehensive healing.

Eating Disorders
The therapists were not considerate to me - it seemed like they were bored, having heard the same story repeatedly. The group sessions were too large for me to really get involved or discuss the issues. I was forced to attend meals three times a day. No one forced me to eat, but the expectation was there without any consideration for current eating habits or necessary changes. I felt awful every day during and after meals, feeling forced to satisfy my food ‘obligations.’ This program is designed to work in one way exactly. There’s no understanding that people like me need tenderness and direction and advice, or different approaches. They just stuck to their very general procedure. I was made to meet with a ‘nutritionist’ and her approach was very calorie count based. I was directed to look at food labels and log my food and weigh myself every two weeks. It was not only rigid, but it was also extremely counterproductive. I’m in ED treatment with an individual therapist with intimate experience with ERC and was warned that this place was NOT a group to go for actual help. They reinforced my opinions and understanding. They also helped me realize that the time I had with the ‘nutritionist’ was in itself trauma inducing.

Thank you for voicing these concerns. Nothing is more important to us than our patients feeling supported during their healing process and their experience with us while they're in treatment. If you would like to speak with someone directly about your experience, we would welcome that opportunity. You can reach our dedicated patient advocate team at patient.advocate@ercpathlight.com.

We love hearing about your treatment experience
