Founded in 2001, EDCare’s Denver location is the flagship facility. It offers a continuum of care including a Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), standard outpatient options and aftercare.
Joint Commission accredited, EDCare employs a mindfulnesses-based approach called CAMSA (Connection, Acceptance, Mindfulness, Sense of Self, Action) that treats the underlying roots of the eating disorder and heals the mind, body and spirit.

Treatment and Staff
EDCare treats adult clients with an array of eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, compulsive eating, binge eating and unspecified eating disorders as well as co-occurring disorders. Before beginning treatment, clients undergo a comprehensive assessment that includes a full medical exam, a psychological and psychiatric evaluation as well as a nutritional history. This evaluation helps the team to design the most effective treatment plan customized to the unique needs of the individual.
EDCare Denver offers PHP, IOP, an evening IOP, outpatient services and aftercare. Evening IOP is ideal for clients that require consistent therapy without having to stop working. In addition, there are specialized tracks for binge eating, trauma, substance use and athletics. PHP clients engage in weekly consults with a psychiatrist, individual therapy twice a week, daily group therapy as well as family therapy once a week. In group therapy, clients learn about the disease of addiction, proper nutrition, relationships, positive body image and coping mechanisms. Therapists utilize evidence-based methods like CBT, DBT and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT). Nutrition therapy is an integral component to treatment. Clients have three meals a day, participate in instructive cooking classes and meet regularly with a dietitian to create a sustainable balanced meal plan.
The EDCare team is comprised of therapists, dietitians, psychiatrists, physicians, sport psychologists, conditioning consultants and clinicians. Medication management can be facilitated.
