Our Innovative Treatment Program

Our focus is on Eating Disorders. We can assist you with other psychological problems, but our focus and our specialty is the treatment of eating disorders. Our Program utilizes Holistic Treatment, Family Involvement, and a Consistent Daily Schedule. We especially emphasize, when possible, the role of family in your recovery. We strongly suggest one hour per week of family therapy, ideally combined with our monthly weekend family intensives. Your loved ones are deeply interwoven in your healing process to provide strong and familiar during care and after discharge.

At Tapestry we recognize that the process of change is highly personal.

While at Tapestry you participate in intensive daily treatment which involves all meals and snacks. Our treatment model is a combination of cognitive behavioral, insight oriented, problem solving and skill building approaches. Solution focused therapy techniques are incorporated with an in depth exploration of family dynamics, body image, abuse, relationships, personal issues or additional psychiatric problems such as a concurrent chemical dependency or mood disorder (bi-polar or depression).

As each resident is unique in her treatment needs, every resident will have an individualized treatment schedule. However, there are several aspects of the program that are the same for each person. Your stay will begin with an orientation by a therapist and depending on time of arrival, it will be followed by a group session for residents to introduce themselves.

Our on-staff psychiatrist maintains weekly appointments and is available 24/7. Your fellow residents will be your support peer during your orientation to help you find your way. The treatment program at Tapestry does involve doctor visits as needed, but our main focus is on therapy instead of medication. Some of the therapy programs we use include:
