Treatment and Staff
Incoming clients undergo an extensive assessment process prior to beginning any sort of treatment track.

Each program includes a combination of group and individual therapy, psychoeducation, life skills and nutritional coaching in addition to some holistic treatment. There are also dual diagnosis services, including medication management, if needed.

This is typically the starting point for clients who have just completed a residential treatment program but are still in need of steady daily support. The IOP requires between eight and 12 treatment hours weekly, and the standard OP is about three to six hours per week. Additionally, Walker Wellness Clinic offers specialty programs for athletes who have struggled with eating disorders and a weekend-only program.
