Eating Disorder Treatment - Better Care, to Live Your Best Life

When Your World Is Spinning- Turn to Us

We understand how difficult it can be to function when an eating disorder that has taken control over your life. Our expert medical professionals have a unique and effective approach to the recovery process, and our environment is small, private and designed for healing.

Fairwinds Treatment Center specializes in treating eating disorders for both adolescent and adult females and males with individualized treatment plans for each patient. Our Eating Disorders program is extremely focused on each specific patient. We use different types of treatment and therapy to help facilitate each patient's recovery process. Each patient follows a treatment schedule and has a specific therapist assigned to their treatment plan and is able to visit with the psychiatrist on a daily basis.

Another added feature of treatment at Fairwinds is that our Registered Dietician runs a Nutrition Group to re-introduce food into the patient's life. The Nutrition Group helps incorporate a food plan into daily life. Activities include meal planning, where individuals create a weekly food diary that includes all meals and snacks.

The dietician also runs an experiential group for eating disorder patients where weekly trips are planned to help introduce a healthy lifestyle. Trips include going to the grocery store, cooking a meal and going to a restaurant. This experiential therapy is worked into each individual's specific treatment plan.

Body Image and Eating Disorders

There are two components of body image:
1) How you perceive your body
2) What you feel about your perception
These components can range from a positive to a negative outlook.

Factors Include:

• Body Ownership
• Body Acceptance
• Body Obsessed
• Distorted Body Image
• Body Hate

Multiple factors contribute to body image, and when these factors get out of an individual's control and eating disorder can develop.
