About Aster Springs Cincinnati
Aster Springs Cincinnati helps teens ages 16 and older and adults of all genders build a more flexible relationship with food through personalized outpatient eating disorder treatment. In small groups and individual sessions, clients work with their care team to understand eating patterns, address challenges with food and body image, and practice skills they can use in everyday life. The program treats anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and other eating disorders through partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive outpatient (IOP), and evening virtual IOP.
Work Through More Than Food Challenges
Aster Springs considers each client's emotional, medical, nutritional, and relationship needs when building treatment plans. Therapy and nutrition support address eating behaviors, body image, and co-occurring anxiety, depression, or trauma. The team also explores how personal food choices, such as veganism, may reflect individual values or restrictions connected to an eating disorder. Care includes support for conditions such as OSFED, purging disorder, and body dysmorphic disorder.
Find a Treatment Schedule That Fits
Aster Springs offers daytime partial hospitalization (PHP) for clients who need more structured care and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) for those who need fewer treatment hours. An evening virtual IOP provides another option for people balancing treatment with school, work, or family responsibilities. Each program allows clients to continue living at home while receiving therapy and nutrition support. Clients must be medically stable to participate, as the location does not provide 24-hour supervision.
Access Additional Levels of Care
Treatment needs may change over time, and Aster Springs is part of a network that includes residential eating disorder treatment programs in Ohio, Tennessee, and Virginia through Odyssey Behavioral Healthcare. These programs offer additional options for clients who need more intensive support. After treatment, former clients and families can also stay connected through weekly Stronger Together support groups.
