Support for Co-occurring Eating Disorders
They also treat eating disorders in tandem with mental health due to the strong relationship that can exist between the two. Treating both at the same time is a critical component of long-term recovery. Anorexia, bulimia and binge eating don’t typically occur alone. Instead, these disorders are often co-occurring with anxiety, depression, or trauma and the center uses evidence-based approaches to address these overlapping issues.
Extensive Network of Care
This facility is in the larger Center for Discovery network that has locations throughout Northern and Southern California, as well as other states across the country. They provide personalized programs tailored to each individual’s needs so patients can feel secure in their routines and comfort while being treated in caring environments.
Mental Health Care and Treatment
Greenwich Center’s Drug Addiction Program sees substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders as often manifestations of underlying causes. The Mental Health Program offers treatment for anxiety, depression, PTSD and more using a trauma-informed model.
There’s a significant family component, as family members gain insight into the patient’s experience and are given tools to support the patient in the long term. The program even offers telehealth options for people who prefer to handle their healthcare needs from the comfort of their own homes.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government.

Creativity is inherently healing, and can help those in recovery express thoughts or feelings they might not otherwise be able to. Creative arts therapy can include music, poetry/writing, painting, sculpting, dance, theater, sandplay, and more. Unlike traditional art, the final product matters far less than the experience of creation and expression itself.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.
Eating disorders include anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, and dysfunctional eating patterns. Many psychologists and other mental health professionals consider eating disorders to be food addictions, meaning food is being used in an addictive way (similar to drug or alcohol addiction). Certain substance abuse treatment programs will have treatment for eating disorders as one of the services offered. An eating disorder may also present as a co-occuring disorder or dual diagnosis alongside drug and alcohol addiction.
EMDR is a therapeutic modality originally developed to help process trauma. In an EMDR session, a patient is prompted to undergo eye movements that mimic those of REM sleep. This is accomplished by watching a therapist's finger move back and forth across, or following a bar of light. The goal is repetitive sets of eye movements that help the brain reprocess memory, which can significantly reduce the intensity of remembered traumatic incidents. Associated memories can heal simultaneously, leaving patients significantly calmer, more stable, and more emotionally relaxed.
Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
