Eating Disorder Resources: In Network Dietitians, Free Support Groups, Treatment Centers and More!

This will be a blog post I try to update regularly as I learn of new eating disorder resources out there.

I know something that is often hard for people to find is access to resources and what is available to them! Hence why I am posting this list for you all!

Please keep in mind there are an endless amount of resources I will continue to add as I learn about them. Please feel free to reach out if you know of any additional resources that would be helpful for other people to know about!

Higher levels of care

Treatment and higher levels of care are for patients who need more support with their struggles than what they are getting in outpatient. Please always consult with your treatment team regarding this and whether or not a higher level of care is for you and make sure you do your own research if you need a higher level of care to find a program that is a fit for you!

Inpatient – Hospitalization, 24 hour care
Residential – In a home usually, 24 hour care
Partial Hospitalization – 5-7 days/week depending on the program, minimum 6 hours/day and depends on the program
Intensive Outpatient – Ranges from 3-5 days/week, minimum 3 hours/day and depends on the program

Please keep in mind every program location listed for the individual centers is not going to have each level of care offered in that location. Each program will also accept different insurances! More on these specifics can be found on the websites for each program. This is also not a full list of every program available so I am hoping to add to this list as I learn about more programs!
