EATING DISORDER TREATMENT NEAR TAMPA, FL

Start Your Journey Toward Recovery

If you or a loved one are dealing with an eating disorder, support is available. Eating disorder treatment centers serving Tampa, like Remedy Therapy Center, offer customized care to help clients achieve sustainable recovery.

Hospitalization rates have risen for individuals between the ages of 12 and 21 for eating disorders throughout Florida, while the Tampa area has seen a hospitalization rate of 16 per 100,000 people.

There are many risk factors for Tampa residents, particularly women, and studies indicate that marginalized groups are less likely to get the care and treatment they need for eating disorders. At Remedy Therapy Center, our goal is to help Tampa residents find the right residential care for eating disorders, no matter their background.

What We OfferEating Disorder Treatment Programs near Tampa

Medical Assessment

We want to start with ensuring each of our clients is safe physically, and that means getting the right nutrition and hydration. With an initial assessment, we can create customized eating plans and nutritional education. We want to encourage our clients to better understand the nutrition that they need through things like one-on-one meal planning and nutritional education. This all starts with medical monitoring and, where necessary, medical interventions.

Medical Interventions

By checking vital signs, our team can regularly administer any necessary medical interventions and ensure that nutrition plans provide appropriate nutrition and hydration. During their stay, clients will enjoy a structured environment that includes participation in daily activities such as individual and group therapy sessions, regular meal times, and other therapeutic activities like mindfulness. Our goal is to help each client establish a healthy routine while also building strategies and coping skills to manage eating disorder behaviors in a healthier way.

  • For some clients, this means a deeper understanding through intensive therapy of the emotional causes behind eating behaviors
  • For some clients, this means understanding the way that media has distorted their perceptions of body image and self, relating to eating behaviors
  • For some clients, this means working through mindfulness to sit with discomfort and emotions instead of turning to impulsive eating behaviors 

During residential treatment, we give clients access to evidence-based interventions that are tailored to every client’s needs and that can include things like dialectical behavioral therapy, experiential therapy, nutritional counseling, and family therapy. The goal is to understand what factors are contributing on a personal level to each eating disorder and, from there, to help ensure long-term recovery with healthy coping skills.

Achieving sustained recovery means getting support not just from staff but from other peers who understand the challenges of having an eating disorder. To facilitate this level of peer support, we encourage recreational activities that promote support from the community, have group meal times, and group therapy sessions. This makes it easier for clients to learn from one another. 

Individual Therapy

A big part of our program is offering one-on-one sessions with a trained psychologist. Our eating disorder psychologists in Tampa can help each client better understand things that might have contributed to their eating behaviors, like family dynamics, unresolved trauma, media portrayals, incorrect ideas about body image, or a co-occurring mental health disorder.

Family Therapy

Family therapy is another key aspect of our treatment program, providing some clients with the opportunity to work with their family members on rebuilding communication in a healthier fashion or changing family dynamics in a way that better facilitates healthy eating habits. 

Group Therapy

Group therapy sessions can be applied to all types of treatment at our center, including nutritional education sessions, meals, and therapy sessions. In each of these forms, the treatment received is facilitated by a trained psychologist or other qualified professional and is designed to encourage collaboration. We want each of our clients to share their experiences, to learn from one another, and to recognize that they don’t have to live in isolation or fear because other people have gone through and are going through the same struggles.

Experiential Therapy

We also focus on experiential therapy, providing access to things like:

  • Mindfulness
  • Body Image Therapy
  • Nutrition Education

Experiential therapy can provide coping skills and boost self-esteem in a way that contributes to long-term success and diminishes the risk of a relapse. When individuals have a better understanding of how the media might negatively or incorrectly portray body image combined with mindfulness and nutrition education, they can sit with initial discomfort triggered by seeing something on social media, mindfully accept what they are feeling without judgment but also recognize that those feelings are incorrect, and turn to healthier eating habits instead of impulsive and maladaptive eating habits.

Aftercare Support

At Remedy Therapy Center, we understand that many clients need continued care after a residential program, and that is why we work collaboratively with our clients and their families to develop an aftercare program that can include a transition to lower levels of care, such as flexible outpatient programs and attendance at support groups.

While residential treatment provides a chance to step away from one’s environment and the triggers or stresses within that environment, continued outpatient support can help individuals practice the skills they gained and use the insights gleaned during residential care while slowly returning to regular life.

Remedy has saved my life!!! Truly I mean that with all my heart. I came in broken I had just lost my best friend to suicide and my eating disorder got out of hand. As once told to me the eating disorder voice was way louder than my recovery voice. Since being here I have gained hope back and have a purpose to actually live, something I lost a long time ago and thought I’d never get back. I accept myself as is and now view food not as “healthy or unhealthy” but as food….food is food. I am beyond grateful for all the staff and the peers that were here while I was and there isn’t enough words to express my appreciation for them. Thank you remedy for helping me get my life back

i've been a patient at remedy therapy for a little over three months and i depart tomorrow. remedy is truly a very special place and i am grateful for all of the staff and other patients i have met on the way. i have been to so many treatment centers over the last decade and i will say they truly care about you here. never once have i felt unsafe because of anyone else. i will admit, i have not fully grasped the concept of recovery because i have not been fully ready for it but remedy has still supported me despite that and pushed me past my comfort zones. i had to learn to find comfort in the discomfort. remedy therapy is a place where healing truly begins. i would like to reiterate the fact that they truly care about you here. you are not just a number. amanda and jamie are the best dietitians i have ever worked with and you have amazing techs like ms. patti, jam, and jazz who see this job as more than just a job. i learned a lot about myself here. at remedy therapy, everything is individualized. therefore, they don't just slap a "one-size-fits-all" bandaid on your recovery. if anyone i know is struggling with an eating disorder, this is the place i would 1,000% recommend time and time again. to me, these people have become my recovery family. i've watched so many people come in struggling, myself included, and they walk out a completely different person. don't be afraid to reach out to remedy, they're just a phone call away. #beatingeatingdisorders

Going to Remedy Therapy was best decision I ever made. I went in feeling scared and alone, but left empowered and understood by the community as a whole. The environment was safe and fostered support like I've never seen. Like any treatment center, it had it's difficult moments, but I learned so much from the experience as a whole- not only about myself but compassion for others as well. Leaving my life behind to commit to this program was hard, but so worth it. The house was cozy, the staff was always there to listen and push me in the direction I needed to go, and the people just get you like nobody else. I have nothing but gratitude for Remedy and would highly recommend to anyone looking to make a positive change in their life. Shout-out to Miss Patti for her unwavering love for anyone who is lucky enough to know her.

I am so unbelievably thankful for Remedy Therapy. They have been so helpful in my recovery. No matter what I was going through I always felt supported not only by the staff but my community. I truly gained life long connections. I couldn’t be more grateful for the helped I received during therapy, group sessions and meeting with the dietician's. The staff at Remedy truly care about your recovery and help you every step of the way even after discharge. I know I can always reach out if I need help or resources. If you are looking for help for an eating disorder I highly recommend Remedy Therapy.
