Anorexia Treatment

Understanding Anorexia

Anorexia Nervosa is a serious mental health condition characterized by an intense fear of gaining weight and a distorted body image, leading to extreme dietary restrictions and excessive weight loss. It affects both physical and mental health, often requiring comprehensive treatment to address the complex interplay of psychological, emotional, and physical factors.

Our Approach

At Lois Bridges, we offer a compassionate and individualized approach to anorexia treatment. Our holistic program is designed to support and guide individuals on their journey to recovery, focusing on both the mind and body.

Comprehensive Assessment

Every treatment plan begins with a thorough assessment conducted by our multidisciplinary team of experts, including psychiatrists, psychologists, nutritionists, and medical doctors. This initial evaluation helps us understand the unique needs of each client and develop a personalized treatment plan.

Family-Based Therapy (FBT): Involves family members in the treatment process to provide support and address any familial dynamics that may contribute to the disorder.
