Emotional Eating Program
Remuda’s Emotional Eating Program treats women and girls struggling with:
Since 1990, Remuda Ranch has specialized in the treatment of eating disorders. More than 7,000 women and girls have found hope and healing through our Christian-based programs.
Today, eating disorders have reached epidemic proportions. In addition to anorexia and bulimia, obesity is now part of this growing problem. Different disorders, yet each have the power to devastate individuals and destroy relationships. Few residential treatment programs have existed to meet the unique needs of those struggling with Obesity, Compulsive Overeating, and Binge-Eating Disorder, until now.
Remuda's Emotional Eating Program utilizes the same therapeutic strategies that have proven so effective in the treatment of anorexia and bulimia: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy set in a framework of Biblical Christianity. This is not a weight-loss program; rather, it's specialized treatment conducted in a structured environment that's designed to break the highly addictive cycle of emotional eating. This creates changes that will last far longer than a diet.
One of the defining factors of emotional eating is low self esteem. By the time patients discharge from our Emotional Eating Program, they show considerable improvement in this area.
Each resident receives an individualized treatment plan, created to meet her specific therapeutic needs. During her 30 to 60-day stay, she meets regularly with a treatment team of eating disorder professionals, which includes a Primary Care Provider, Registered Dietitian, Psychiatric Care Provider, and Masters Level Therapist.
Time in this program is time well spent. Each week, 20-25 hours are dedicated to a variety of innovative therapy techniques, both individual and group. The goal of each is to uncover the complex psychological factors contributing to each individual's unhealthy relationship with food. Only through such understanding is recovery possible. Recreation and leisure time are built into the schedule as well; in fact, each resident follows an exercise program created just for her.
