Eating Disorders Partial Hospitalization Program
The Eating Disorders Partial Hospitalization Program offers patients a less intense
alternative to inpatient care. It serves as a transitional step to bridge the way between
inpatient and outpatient programs. Patients receive step-down treatment within the
inpatient milieu on a 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. schedule. They typically transition from seven
days per week to fewer days, until they are fully prepared for discharge to outpatient
treatment. For patients living outside the area, staff assists in coordinating convenient,
affordable housing opportunities.

The Eating Disorders Track
Trauma and abuse place an individual at risk for the development of eating disturbances,
including food restriction, binge eating, purging, compulsive exercise, and body-image
distortion. Individualized treatment is designed based on the client’s unique needs and
includes individual therapy, group therapy, expressive and movement therapies, and
nutritional guidance. Didactic modules and dialectical behavior therapy help clients
increase the ability to tolerate affect without the use of eating disordered symptoms.
Clients learn to identify hunger and healthy eating habits. Our track helps clients explore
and understand their eating disturbance in the context of trauma.

Compulsive Behaviors Program
Services offered address a variety of compulsive behaviors, including sexual compulsion/
addiction, paraphilias, addictive relationships, compulsive spending, obsessive relational
intrusion, gambling, and self-injury. The majority of clients co-present with other related
issues such as substance abuse, eating disorders, depression, and interpersonal difficulties. The model supports the belief that compulsions are related to identifiable sources
(e.g., family dysfunction and/or trauma), operate in a predictable pattern (cycle identification), and can benefit from behavioral management techniques (e.g., covert sensitization). Relapse prevention tools are extensively utilized.
Creating Roots
for Healing:
The Center is committed to providing patients with practical tools with which to contain
symptoms. Modifying distorted thinking, normalizing body image, correcting disordered
eating, and normalizing weight are major goals of the program. Emphasis is placed
on understanding the underlying dynamics, developing healthy coping skills, managing
stress and preventing relapse.
AT RIVER OAKS HOSPITAL
This program offers treatment to a diverse trauma population, which includes combat
trauma, natural disasters, existential abuse, emotional incest, and sexual abuse. The two
tracks are trauma stabilization and trauma resolution. Since trauma has a dissociogenic
force, the full spectrum of dissociation is addressed. The goal of this program is to
promote healing and recovery utilizing information reprocessing. Grief work and anger
management, as well as expressive therapies, are integral components of treatment.
Shortly after admission, an individual therapist, family therapist and nutritionist are assigned
to each patient. A thorough assessment is completed by each discipline and appropriate
diagnostic laboratory studies and psychological testing are ordered. Each patient has three
individual psychotherapy sessions and two family therapy sessions per week. If the family
resides outside of the area, which is typically the case, most of the family sessions are
conducted by way of conference calls on speaker phones.

Acute Eating Disorders Inpatient Program
The 16-bed inpatient eating disorders unit is located in a treatment pavilion that is
separate from all other clinical programs on the hospital grounds. The Center embraces
a comprehensive, individualized approach to patient care that is characterized by an
aggressive group therapy schedule, intense individual and family work, focused nutrition
correction, and prompt and complete discharge planning. Our ultimate treatment goal is
to eliminate the symptoms that endanger our patients’ lives while dealing with the issues
that drive the eating disordered behaviors.
AND
With a respected national reputation, our programs have provided quality services
for individuals from Canada, South America, Europe, and every state in the United
States. The programs offer individualized treatment packages that emphasize intensive
individual psychotherapy, directive specialty groups, dialectical behavior therapy,
expressive therapies, psychoeducational modules, relapse prevention groups, and
options for EMDR. Relapse prevention includes identifying triggers, high risk situations,
balanced living, boundaries, and adaptive coping resources. Treatment is based on
psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and systemic approaches. Treatment may include
inpatient, intensive outpatient, and the specialized Impaired Professional Program.
Program selection is based on careful screening and assessment.
