Treating Anorexia and Related Disorders
Recovering from anorexia is difficult on its own. Making recovery even more complex is the presence of a co-occurring disorder or special circumstances that can interfere with a complete recovery from anorexia.
Rader Programs has the expertise needed to help you or a loved one have a successful recovery from anorexia, despite the presence of a co-occurring disorder or special circumstance.
In fact, for more than 25 years, we have been providing expert anorexia treatment that addresses head-on any co-occurring disorders or special circumstances. Rader Programs’ anorexia clinic offers a supportive environment for adult women and men to overcome their anorexia and any related disorders.
Our multi-disciplinary team of caring and experienced professionals, which includes psychiatrists, physicians, psychologists, registered nurses, master’s-level clinicians and nutritionists, can help you develop an individualized treatment plan that addresses both your eating disorder and any additional issues you may be facing.
Rader Programs’ anorexia hospital has expertise in providing anorexia treatment along with the following co-occurring disorders:
- Drug and alcohol abuse: People who struggle with anorexia often also struggle with drug or alcohol abuse. Drugs and alcohol provide a way for anorexics to self-medicate, and can also be used to suppress hunger and lose weight. Our team of professionals is skilled at addressing the specific treatment needs of each disorder while helping you to recover from both.
- Anxiety and depression: If you have anorexia, there is a good chance you have also developed a mood disorder such as anxiety or depression. These disorders can leave you feeling even more out of control of your body and your mood. We will help you tackle any anxiety or depression you may have along with your anorexia for a more complete recovery.
- Self-harm: Self-harm in the form of cutting, scratching or burning is frequently used to help cope with and feel in control of negative emotions. The caring professionals at our anorexia clinic will help you face and process your negative emotions so that anorexia and self-harm are no longer what you turn to in order to cope.
In addition to treating co-occurring disorders, Rader Programs has expertise in treating people with anorexia who also have any of the following special circumstances:
- Men: Anorexia is just as devastating and harmful to men as it is to women. The eating disorder can have a negative effect on a man’s body image, self-esteem and health. Rader Programs recognizes the unique needs of men with anorexia and is here to help you recover.
- Athletes: Athletes often develop anorexia as a result of their need to be in shape, work out and remain competitive. And while athletes can often hide the symptoms of anorexia, the effects of the eating disorder are no less severe. Rader Programs provides anorexia treatment that can help athletes find recovery while meeting their athletic goals.
- Vegetarians, Vegans and People Who Keep Kosher: We can tailor anorexia treatment to people with special dietary needs so that you learn to maintain a healthy relationship with the foods that you regularly eat. We are committed to helping you find the anorexia treatment and a diet that works best for you.
- Diet Pills, Ipecac and Laxatives: People with anorexia may use diet pills, Ipecac or laxatives to help maintain their weight. This dangerous habit can cause severe medical complications. Our expert multi-disciplinary anorexia treatment team can address the medical and psychological components of misuse of any of these substances.
If you or a loved one is suffering from anorexia in addition to any of the above co-occurring disorders or special circumstances, Rader Programs has the anorexia treatment program that will help.
