Our Services
The goal of our programs and services is: Recovery. Our client and family-centered team treatment approach offers highly individualized care. It is our aim to resolve eating, weight, and body image issues as well as the underlying factors, fostering resilience and empowering our clients to achieve their full potential.
Our team treatment approach includes individual psychotherapy, medical care and pharmacotherapy, nutrition counseling, movement/body image classes and support groups. Treatment begins with an initial assessment with a clinical specialist to determine a personalized treatment plan that incorporates our range of services. If a higher level of care is recommended, we will assist you in that process. To schedule an initial assessment or for information about any of our services call 734-668-8585.
Community Collaborations
The Center is dedicated to community collaboration.
All of our services are available on a “wrap-around” basis for those in treatment with outside providers. In addition, members of our staff are available to provide in-service training seminars and workshops for area groups or treatment facilities. We invite outside providers to contact us to discuss ways we can support you in the care of your patients with eating, weight, and /or body image issues.

New patients are typically seen within two-three weeks of initial contact. Under urgent circumstances we make every effort to schedule the assessment as soon as possible.If you plan to continue working with your patient, please contact us if you are interested in coordinating “wrap-around” care, such as nutrition counseling, behavioral treatments, medical management, or support groups, with your current clinical treatment.
