Specializing in eating disorder treatment for women and girls ages 12 and older, this program offers residential and partial hospitalization (PHP) levels of care in a supportive, female-focused environment. Separate adolescent and adult programming allows treatment to be tailored to each stage of life, while teens receive academic support to help them stay engaged with school during treatment.

Build Confidence Around Food

A standout feature is their Care Through Culinary™ program, a hands-on approach that helps clients build confidence around food through meal preparation and shared dining experiences. Beyond traditional talk therapy, clients engage in experiential therapies such as horticultural therapy, animal-assisted activities, outdoor recreation, and yoga, while family programming helps strengthen support systems. The program also treats co-occurring mental health conditions, including anxiety and depression, as well as substance use disorders alongside eating disorders.

Measuring Meaningful Progress

The program emphasizes continuity across levels of care, allowing clients to step down from residential treatment to PHP within the same treatment setting. Progress is tracked through routine outcomes monitoring, helping clinicians measure changes in eating disorder symptoms and overall wellbeing throughout treatment.

Recovery Surrounded by Nature

Set on 36 acres in Alabama, the campus offers a private retreat-like setting for treatment. Separate accommodations for adolescents and adults support age-specific programming, while the program's intimate size allows for personalized care and a close-knit community. Wooded grounds, gardens, and scenic outdoor spaces create a calm environment focused on recovery.
