Our Supportive EnvironmentWho We Help in Sarasota
We welcome clients from across Florida, including Sarasota, to our residential program in Stuart, FL. If you’re noticing restrictive patterns, binge/purge cycles, compulsive exercise, or increasing distress around food and body image, our team can help you evaluate what level of care is right.
Our language and approach are inclusive and individualized. We tailor care to the person, not a label, considering medical needs, nutrition, and therapy together.
If symptoms are affecting your health, school or work, relationships, or daily routines, early evaluation matters. Start with a confidential benefits check or consultation to discuss fit and timing.
What We Treat
We provide residential care for a range of eating disorders.
- Anorexia: Restriction, intense fear of weight gain, and body image distortion. Residential care focuses on medical stabilization, structured nutrition, and skills to reduce rigid food rules.
- Bulimia: Cycles of binge eating with compensatory behaviors (purging, laxatives/diuretics, or compulsive exercise). Treatment targets the binge–purge cycle, medical monitoring, regular meals, and coping skills.
- Binge Eating: Recurrent episodes of eating large amounts with loss of control and distress. Programming supports pattern interruption, emotion regulation, and rebuilding consistent, balanced eating.
- ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder): Limited intake due to sensory sensitivities, fear of consequences (e.g., choking), or low interest in food without body image focus. Care emphasizes nutritional rehabilitation and gradual, supported food expansion.
- OSFED (Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder): Clinically significant symptoms that don’t fit another single diagnosis (e.g., atypical anorexia, purging disorder). Plans are tailored to your presentation with coordinated medical, nutrition, and therapy support.
- Orthorexia: Distressing preoccupation with “healthy” or “clean” eating that restricts variety and social life. Treatment works toward flexibility with food, reduced anxiety, and values-aligned routines.
- Diabulimia: Disordered insulin restriction or manipulation alongside an eating disorder. Residential care integrates medical oversight, nutrition, diabetes education, and therapy to improve safety and stability.
- Sensory Processing Disorder: Sensory challenges that affect food variety and intake. Our team coordinates nutrition support and gradual exposure strategies within a structured, supportive setting.

What We OfferWhy Residential Care

- Safe structure with a consistent daily routine
- Medical monitoring and oversight to support stabilization
- Intensive therapy (individual and group) to build skills and insight
- Meal support and nutrition guidance with registered dietitians

Many Sarasota clients choose to travel for care because distance can reduce day-to-day triggers, create space for focus, and offer added privacy as you start recovery.

Our Approach to Treatment
CBT & DBT
We use evidence-based therapies to target the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that sustain the disorder. CBT helps you notice patterns and practice new skills; DBT adds tools for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and mindful decision-making.
Individual Therapy & Group Therapy
You’ll meet one-on-one to set goals, process challenges, and track progress, then practice skills in a group, where guided discussion and peer support help you apply what you’re learning in real time.
Nutritional Program (Registered Dietitians)
Registered dietitians provide education, structured meal support, and coaching to restore consistent, balanced eating patterns. You’ll work toward greater food flexibility while rebuilding trust with your body.
Physician-Guided Medical Intervention & Monitoring
Within Residential Treatment, our team monitors health status and coordinates physician-guided medical intervention as needed, aligning medical care with your therapy and nutrition plan.
What to Expect in Residential Care
A typical day combines therapy, meals with support, and health monitoring in a calm, recovery-focused setting. You’ll follow a consistent schedule that blends individual and group sessions, sessions with a registered dietitian, and time for rest and reflection.
Your plan is collaborative and individualized, built around your needs and adjusted as you progress. As stability grows, we refine goals, practice skills, and map next steps so you can return home with a clear, sustainable routine.
