Why Choose Residential Eating Disorder Treatment

Eating Disorder Solutions uses evidence-based therapies to treat eating disorders, providing thorough and effective care. With these proven methods, we support lasting recovery and help individuals build a solid foundation for long-term health and well-being.

Located in the Heart of Texas

Our residential eating disorder center is located in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area. Our center’s peaceful, nature-rich environment offers a safe and supportive space for recovery, away from the distractions of city life. The Ranch is accessible to individuals from nearby cities such as Arlington, Plano, Irving, and others, providing convenient access to high-quality care. 

A Home-like Environment

We refer to our holistic residential treatment center as your “home away from home.” Here, we prioritize your comfort and well-being, providing ample space for you to truly make it your own sanctuary. With spacious bedrooms, a chef-styled kitchen for delicious and nutritious meals, a cozy living room, beautiful outdoor spaces, and more, our center is designed to ensure that your stay is not just a commitment but a warm and inviting environment where healing feels natural.

Evidence-Based Therapy Methods

Our treatment program incorporates a variety of evidence-based therapies. From nutritional therapy to psychotherapy, ecotherapy, expressive therapy, and exposure therapy, our diverse range of therapeutic interventions helps you explore the intricate interplay between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors related to food and body image. As you progress through each step of your journey, these therapies provide opportunities to learn healthy coping skills, which further enhance your resilience and foster stress and anxiety tolerance directly connected to your eating disorder.

24/7 Support and Supervision

Our team comprises incredibly talented individuals from diverse backgrounds and lifestyles, many of whom have personally confronted eating disorders or mental health challenges. Their firsthand experiences provide a deeper understanding of individuals’ emotions and struggles during treatment. These connections enable us to provide support that is deeply attuned to your well-being. With around-the-clock care available whenever needed, the collaborative efforts among recovery coaches, therapists, dietitians, nurses, and other clinical staff ensure that you are never alone in your journey toward recovery.

Meal Support

Recovering from an eating disorder is a personal journey, and meal support plays a key role in the process. It offers guidance and understanding to help with individual challenges, providing support to ease anxieties around food and create a more positive mealtime experience. Meal support is crucial for normalizing eating behaviors, promoting a healthier mindset, and contributing significantly to the overall success of the recovery journey.

Medical Stability and Monitoring

Continuous medical monitoring is provided to manage any health complications arising from eating disorders. For clients facing medical instability due to severe malnutrition, electrolyte imbalances, or other medical complications, it’s essential to have round-the-clock medical supervision and care. Also, our nursing team conducts regular assessments to meet clients’ medical needs, focusing on maintaining overall physical health. Prompt attention to medical issues is essential to prevent emergencies and support safe recovery. This ongoing medical care helps clients feel secure, knowing that their health is closely monitored.

Behavioral Interventions

Clients navigating eating disorders often exhibit complex behaviors that call for attentive care and intervention. Here in our program, we recognize the significance of addressing these behaviors with understanding and skill. We take a team approach, including therapists, dietitians, and medical professionals, to offer personalized support that meets each individual’s specific needs and challenges.

Transition from Inpatient Care

Entering residential treatment marks an important phase for clients transitioning from the intensity of inpatient care. It’s a comforting space where individuals can find ongoing support as they navigate their path toward greater independence and wellness. Here, they’re surrounded by a caring community ready to assist them every step of the way as they gradually build confidence and self-reliance.

Chronicity or Treatment Resistance

For some clients, their experience with chronic eating disorders has been a tough road, and they haven’t quite found the right support in lower levels of care. That’s where residential treatment comes in. It offers higher support and understanding, acknowledging the complexities and difficulties of long-standing or tough-to-treat cases. Here, individuals discover a nurturing environment where their challenges are met with empathy and care, giving them the chance to finally get the comprehensive support they’ve been searching for.
