Anorexia Treatment
Anorexia treatment at the Women's Center for Healthy Living is one of the finest treatment programs in the country for women. In addition to anorexia treatment, the Women's Center provides treatment for other eating disorders, drug addiction, alcoholism and dual disorders. It is not uncommon for women with anorexia to also suffer from a co-occurring disorder. For this reason, every woman admitted to treatment is seen by our medical director and staff psychiatrist for complete evaluation in order to develop an individual custom treatment plan.
Anorexia is a devastating disease with a mortality rate far exceeding that of any other eating disorder or addiction. Anorexia treatment can be provided on an inpatient or outpatient basis, depending upon the severity of the anorexia. Treatment for anorexia is not a short, quick fix. It requires time, patience and quite a bit of support.
Our quality anorexia treatment program focuses on more than weight gain, other goals included are:
- Medical stabilization

- Elements of control
- Elements of self destruction
