About Prosperity Eating Disorders and Wellness Reston
Prosperity Eating Disorders and Wellness Center provides individualized treatment that is patient-led, family-included, and facilitated by highly experienced clinicians. They treat anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder (BED), unspecified eating disorders (ED NOS), and avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). They also treat co-occurring anxiety disorders, mood disorders, trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), self-harm, and substance use disorders. Programs include partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) options for adults and adolescents ages 10+. The IOP is offered during the day or evening. Groups are composed by age and developmental level rather than diagnosis.
Prosperity helps clients understand how their eating disorder developed, how it has been maintained, and how to live a full life without it. Their approach integrates Health at Every Size (HAES), All Foods Fit, and compassionate, personalized treatment. They draw on evidence-based therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and radically open dialectical behavior therapy (RO DBT). Programming includes individual therapy, nutrition counseling, psychiatry, family meetings, and family therapy. Traditional modalities are complemented by holistic approaches like art therapy, music therapy, and yoga.
In a nurturing and friendly manner, Prosperity helps clients discover that all foods can fit into a nutritionally balanced lifestyle. They work alongside clients to create a customized meal plan that promotes self-efficacy and a positive relationship with food. They use a plate-based system with attention to portioning and nutrient balance, but they can also use exchange-based plans if that is best for the client. During meals, staff will appropriately challenge clients’ disordered thoughts, table behaviors, food fears, and food rules and rituals. Clients are exposed to portioning practice, grocery outings, restaurant outings, cooking groups, challenge snacks, and more. Each meal includes processing time for clients to discuss their challenges and skills to help them move toward recovery. As clients become more in tune with hunger and fullness cues, they transition to an intuitive eating plan that provides true food freedom.
Prosperity’s outpatient facility is warm and inviting. With well-decorated spaces featuring cozy couches and real dining tables, the center provides a comfortable, relaxed environment that encourages healing and connection. Thoughtfully designed to be wheelchair and larger body accessible, Prosperity ensures all clients can access care in a welcoming and supportive setting. Discounted rates at a nearby motel are offered for families in PHP.

Prosperity Eating Disorders and Wellness Center offers a comprehensive approach to body image improvement, focusing on uncovering the roots of negative self-perception, which can often stem from trauma or social influences. Through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), clients learn to reframe harmful thoughts, while biofeedback and somatic work help them manage distress during episodes of body dysmorphia. Techniques such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) address past traumas related to body image. Body tracing and education on malnutrition provide a realistic view of progress and healing. Group discussions also explore cultural pressures, fostering a healthier, more resilient self-image.
At Prosperity, registered dietitians offer hands-on therapeutic eating and cooking skills within a supportive kitchen environment. They guide clients in preparing nutritious meals, address cognitive distortions around food, and encourage healthy habits. Clients practice exposure techniques, such as handling ingredients like butter and sugar, and are coached through eating what they prepare. In a calming setting—with soft lighting, music, and mindful breathing—the experience offers a grounding distraction from anxious thoughts. Clients also learn practical skills, from grocery shopping to recreating balanced meals at home, with instruction from a chef on diverse recipes.
Prosperity prioritizes family involvement in treatment, recognizing the complex emotional and relational factors behind eating disorders. Families receive one-on-one coaching with a licensed marriage and family therapist to learn what to say and do at meals, how to support progress, and which practices are most effective in their loved one’s recovery. Weekly family therapy sessions, a dedicated family coaching hour, and a free support group led by a licensed therapist offer connection, guidance, and hope from others with similar experiences. Families also participate in live, coached meals alongside their loved one. Dietitians maintain close contact with families, providing real-time feedback on meal photos to support the client’s progress and help prevent the need for residential treatment.
Prosperity’s Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (VIOP) provides a structured yet flexible path for individuals needing intensive support in a virtual format. This program offers a tailored combination of individual therapy, nutritional counseling, and group sessions, led by experts in eating disorder treatment. Available in both daytime and evening sessions, VIOP allows clients to access comprehensive care that fits their schedules and lifestyles. With a focus on body image, intuitive eating, and essential coping skills, Prosperity’s VIOP provides an accessible alternative to residential treatment, creating a supportive community for recovery from anywhere.
