Eating disorders have the ability to stop a life in its tracks. Feelings of shame, self-hatred and loneliness abound, as do health issues ranging from the emotional issues unique to each sufferer to potential physical issues including heart problems, organ damage, loss of periods, swollen joints and brittle bones. The Center for Counseling and Health Resources Inc., A Place of Hope knows that the issues surrounding anorexia, bulimia and binge eating are both emotional and physical, and have pioneered a "whole-person" approach to eating disorder treatment that can only be described as inspired healthcare provided in an atmosphere of acceptance.

Whole-person care has been 24 years in the making at A Place of Hope, and the results speak for themselves. Many lives have been restored through an approach that focuses on:

  • Medical health

  • Nutritional well-being

  • Fitness

  • Spiritual health

The key to providing such comprehensive care is in providing committed experts in all of the above fields, and at A Place of Hope that's exactly what you'll find.
