About The Renfrew Center for Eating Disorders – Paramus, NJ – Paramus
The Renfrew Center for Eating Disorders offers treatment for eating disorders and co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders. In other words this treatment center could be an excellent option if you have both an eating disorder and substance use disorder (SUD), but they do not address SUD alone. They have several locations throughout the region. This particular facility is in Paramus, New Jersey.
The Paramus location is an outpatient facility. They have different levels of outpatient programs here including day treatment or partial hospitalization programs. They have intensive outpatient programs or IOPs, too, and they have traditional outpatient therapy. I think it’s important to note that they also have a residential treatment center about two hours away in Spring Lane, Pennsylvania. This way you can transition through various levels of care with the same organization as your recovery progresses.
Your program here will be personalized to your needs in a way that benefits both your addiction recovery and your eating disorder recovery. Your therapy sessions will include individual sessions as well as group and family therapy formats. They also have more unique services like creative arts therapy and nutritional counseling. They can also help with other co-occurring mental health concerns such as trauma and body image issues.
