Supporting ME (Moderate Eating) : http://www.pyrysys.com/me.php Director: Amy Eppner, Ph.D. Supporting ME uses the psychotherapy team, a model not found anywhere else in the world. Supporting ME has a large staff of psychotherapists (mostly licensed psychologists), who provide many different types of psychotherapy. During early treatment clients meet with members of this team, to determine which therapists they work best with. The client then chooses, in consultation with her or his clinical coordinator, the team of therapists (and types of therapy) which seem most helpful. These choices can be changed at any time, and frequently are, as the client pursues her or his own unique path to recovery. Supporting ME staff also includes traditional medical professionals (physicians, dieticians) and alternative healers (providing acupuncture, bodywork, chakra therapy, shiatsu therapy, energy development and healing, etc.). Their work is used to balance the work of psychotherapy. When clients come to Supporting ME they don't need to know in advance which approaches to recovery they need to use. Together we determine the approach you need while you are here. The Supporting ME approach is entirely customized, more so than any other program. We work with your goals and values, to create a treatment plan and an aftercare plan that are precisely tailored to you. We focus in particular on identifying and resolving the problems that give rise to eating and body image problems. Groups are available but not required. For local clients services can be scheduled conveniently. When you call us, be prepared to think about eating disorder treatment in a brand new way!  For a free initial interview call our Intake Coordinator, Sandra Jacobs, at 858-546-1100.

Walden Behavioral Care: www.waldenbehavioralcare.com. Walden Behavioral Care has responded to the evolving knowledge of eating disorders by becoming one of the first hospitals in the country to offer the full "continuum of care" for treating eating disorders. They offer: Inpatient care, Residential care, Partial hospitalization, and Intensive outpatient care. For those with advanced eating disorders, 24-hour monitoring and nursing care are essential. Treatment at this level stabilizes the patient in preparation for intensive behavioral, medical, nutritional and psychological therapy. Walden is one of only a few hospitals in the country to offer acute inpatient care in a specialized, dedicated program. Inpatient care typically lasts for a few weeks. As patients progress, they advance to their residential program at Walden Place or our partial hospitalization program. For those who still need a structured, full-time program, Walden Place provides treatment in a comfortable, home-like setting. Partial hospitalization is the recommended treatment for those who are not quite ready to make the transition from fulltime hospital care to independent living. It includes a daily, structured program, but patients return home each evening. Finally, outpatient care is designed to help patients complete their readjustment and maintain healthy eating patterns. Patients move in both directions within Walden's care system. When more intensive care is needed, it is available for them. As they gain control over their disorder, they move toward independent living. Because they provide a full range of treatment options, they can treat patients who are at any stage in their eating disorder. As a result, patients receive uninterrupted medical care as they advance toward lasting recovery. Their Eating Disorders Service provides discrete, highly specialized treatment for patients 13 and older with anorexia, bulimia, binge-eating disorder and other eating disorders. For more information call 781-647-6727, email info@waldenbehavioralcare.com, or visit their website.
