What We OfferOur Eating Disorder Therapy Options

Family Therapy

While individual therapy is an essential part of any treatment plan, having support, especially from family members, can be equally important. That is why our therapy for eating disorders extends to the family. Family therapy provides a place for family members to come together and potentially change things like communication patterns or relationships that are contributing to or supporting an eating disorder.

Nutritional Counseling

Support for healthy eating habits comes with knowing not only the things that are causing disordered eating behaviors or contributing to an eating disorder, but also knowing how to support lasting change with healthy decisions. Each of our clients gets one-on-one guidance from a licensed dietitian on their respective nutritional needs, what type of nutrition and hydration they need to sustain for long-term health, and how to plan meals.

Cognitive-Behavioral Interventions

Part of your therapy for eating disorders Fort Lauderdale based might involve cognitive behavioral therapy. CBT is a way to help recognize distorted thoughts, particularly negative automatic thoughts that can trigger distorted or negative emotions and subsequently lead to disordered eating behaviors.

Consider that a thought, without being regulated, can quickly manifest as reality even if it isn’t true. And that reality can trigger a negative emotion like anxiety or fear, and emotions that might lead to impulsive behaviors or maladaptive eating behaviors, especially if eating behaviors are used to manage emotions.

These therapy sessions help individuals identify and modify these negative thought patterns with healthier ones. 

Emotional Regulation

A big part of individual therapy is to provide clients with the skills they need to manage difficult emotions, especially those emotions that relate to an eating disorder, such as:

  • Anxiety
  • Fear
  • Shame
  • Guilt
  • Depression 

Our clinicians will provide guidance on coping with these emotions and building distress tolerance instead of giving in to impulsivity and maladaptive behaviors. 

Body Image Therapy

Healthy eating habits are an essential tool for anyone undergoing treatment. With Remedy Therapy Center, our goal is to help each of our clients develop better self-esteem through improved and healthier relationships with their bodies.

When clients struggle with eating disorders, it is not uncommon for them to have body dissatisfaction, a negative body image, or distorted perceptions about their body. This can lead to maladaptive eating behaviors. 

With our body image therapy, clients can explore the thoughts, beliefs, or feelings held about eating and body image, and work to reconstruct them toward things that are healthier or more realistic. 

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a growing holistic modality substantiated by a wide array of scientific evidence. Mindfulness, at its core, refers to being more mindful or aware of things and, in particular, cultivating awareness and acceptance in the present moment.

Anyone struggling with eating disorders might want to do away with negative emotions or discomfort by eating those feelings into submission or using food as a way to replace those negative feelings temporarily. However, mindfulness practice can help individuals sit with thoughts, even negative ones, and simply be aware of them instead of judging them or trying to immediately get rid of them.

This type of practice helps our clients become more aware of not just their immediate emotions but what might be behind those feelings. Mindfulness practice helps teach clients to be more compassionate toward themselves.

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.
