Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal.

During eating disorder treatment, you'll work toward goals such as establishing regular eating patterns, maintaining a healthy weight, and practicing meal planning. You'll also learn about nutrition, eating disorders, and physical health.
Men and women receive emotional support from their peers during group therapy sessions. These are typically people who face the same struggles that you do. This exposure fosters a sense of camaraderie and community while reducing feelings of isolation and loneliness that often accompany addiction.
Rational behavior therapy is used in addiction treatment to help you change dysfunctional thought patterns that have contributed to your addictive behaviors. There is an educational component of the cognitive model that teaches you how your thoughts influence your emotions and therefore your behaviors. Using short term and structured goals, you learn healthier coping strategies to reduce the likelihood of relapse.
