Alsana Birmingham - Residential

In a home-like environment located in the Birmingham area, Alsana serves adults of all genders with well-rounded clinical care in a safe and supportive space. Addressing physical, emotional, and relational aspects, Alsana helps individuals lay a strong foundation for recovery from anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and other eating disorders. They also treat co-occurring mental health conditions along with co-occurring substance use disorders.

Reclaim Identity Through the Recovery Story

Treatment is structured around the Recovery Story framework, which views recovery as a journey within the context of a client's own life. Across five chapters, from the initial Prologue through the transitional Epilogue, the framework gives clients, families, and treatment teams a shared language and consistent parameters. By positioning the client as the main character and narrator, the program helps individuals separate their identity from the eating disorder, reclaim their authentic voice, and maintain accountability toward their personal goals.

Build a Strong Foundation with Holistic Care

Most clients stay 30-45 days, and during that time, clients receive and participate in 24-hour care delivered by a collaborative, multidisciplinary team. This comprehensive support includes individual therapy sessions, a nursing assessment, nutrition counseling, psychiatry services, and group sessions. During their stay at Alsana, clients can expect staff-supported meals, weekend outings, and intensive interventions. Because of this comprehensive framework, providers often refer patients to Alsana when outpatient care isn’t creating meaningful progress.
