Philosophy
Eating disorders are complex illnesses that may require intensive treatment. Center for Change's philosophy recognizes each individual's innate capacity for healing and growth. With proper help and treatment, people suffering from eating disorders can recover. With this in mind, treatment at Center for Change is founded on three basic principles:
- Eating disorders are learned behaviors and therefore can be unlearned.
- Everyone has the capacity for recovery.
- High-quality intervention by trained professionals in a nurturing, home-like atmosphere is the best way of providing positive solutions to the self-destructive behaviors of these individuals.
Only professionals who have had extensive experience in treating self-destructive eating disorders provide therapy at the Center. Center for Change offers programs where hope and healing can take place in an atmosphere of caring and hard work. The goal at Center for Change is to provide a setting for healing which addresses the patient's needs in a cost-effective manner without compromising eating disorder treatment.
