eating disorder programs

Eating disorder programs are specialized treatment plans designed to help individuals with conditions like anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating disorder. They typically involve medical monitoring, nutritional counseling, therapy (such as cognitive-behavioral therapy), and sometimes medication. The goal is to address both the physical health issues caused by the disorder and the underlying emotional or psychological factors. Programs can be outpatient, inpatient, or residential, depending on the severity. They aim to promote healthy eating habits, improve self-esteem, and develop coping strategies to support long-term recovery.
