The Emily Program

About The Emily Program – Durham, North Carolina

The Emily Program’s Durham, North Carolina, location offers residential treatment for those with eating disorders who also have co-occurring substance abuse or mental health disorders. They have a really interesting holistic approach that I liked that offers a more contemporary and homelike setting for adults both male and female.

Their 24/7 care will give you onsite access to nurses who can supervise you and monitor you medically. Their team of medical professionals including therapists, physicians and dietitians can give you personalized support with therapy, nutritional counseling and experiential activities.

Their program incorporates group psychotherapy by using cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and other evidence-based modalities of treatment. Their family therapy plays a big role because it involves loved ones who may not understand you or your condition as well as they’d like to. Their nutrition therapy can help restore your physical health and give you a better understanding of your relationship with food and how it’s affecting you.

You’ll get checked up on whenever you need with their regular physician checkups. And if you’re a resident you can enjoy their experiential activities too, like cooking, grocery shopping, and dining out, which will give you a chance to learn real world coping skills. They also have expressive arts and movement therapy that can offer you a creative outlet to explore your emotions, as well as reducing your anxiety and reconnecting with your body.

Some of their amenities include healthy meals, onsite laundry, wifi, and cozy common areas. The Emily program gives you a lot of services that can make a big difference in your recovery.
