About Eating Recovery Center Texas Christian University Campus
Located at Texas Christian University (TCU) in the Counseling and Mental Health Center, The Eating Recovery Center provides intensive outpatient (IOP) treatment for eating disorders to enrolled students. This 11-week program allows students to continue their coursework and participate in extracurricular activities while receiving care. Enrollment is open year-round.
This specialized program includes weekly therapy sessions with a therapist, customized dorm-friendly recipes, 3 group dinners with other students and staff, and optional family therapy sessions. The group dinners meet on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 5 to 8 p.m. to build connections with other students pursuing treatment.
The Eating Recovery Center seeks to understand the underlying social and psychological pressures (such as co-occurring mental health conditions) that contribute to an individual’s eating condition. Their TCU location is specially focused on identifying and treating pressures of academic life. They use these therapies for weekly discussions: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Family-Based Treatment-Informed Care (FBT).
The Eating Recovery Center’s other locations, including their nearby Dallas clinic, offer the same therapies for adults, children, and adolescents, plus additional therapies like the new radically open dialectical behavior therapy (RO-DBT), which focuses on helping individuals manage their emotions and reduce impulsive behaviors.
