What We Treat
At Cedar Point Mental Health Treatment in Kenosha, Wisconsin, we provide compassionate, structured care for individuals struggling with eating disorders. We understand that an eating disorder can affect every part of your life, including your physical health, your thoughts, your relationships, and the way you see yourself. What may start as dieting, control, or a way to cope can grow into patterns around food and body image that feel impossible to escape.
Our goal is to help you heal your relationship with food and your body, address the emotions underneath the behaviors, and build a path forward that feels sustainable. Through personalized treatment, evidence-based therapies, and a supportive clinical team, we help individuals move beyond disordered eating and toward lasting mental wellness.
Eating disorders are serious mental health conditions marked by persistent disturbances in eating behaviors and related thoughts and emotions. They are not a choice or a phase. Eating disorders affect people of every age, gender, and body size, and they can have significant effects on both mental and physical health.
Common signs of an eating disorder may include:
Common eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). They often occur alongside anxiety, depression, or trauma. No matter how it shows up, an eating disorder is treatable with the right support.
Our Mental Health Treatment Services are designed to support individuals experiencing a wide range of conditions, including:
At Cedar Point Mental Health Treatment, we take a personalized and comprehensive approach to treating eating disorders. We understand that each individual’s experience is different, which is why we tailor treatment to your specific symptoms, history, and goals.
Our approach focuses on:
We combine therapy, psychiatric care, and structured programming to create a well-rounded treatment plan that supports both immediate progress and long-term recovery.
We offer multiple levels of care to ensure that you receive the right amount of support based on your needs.
Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) provides intensive, full-day treatment for individuals experiencing moderate to severe eating disorder symptoms who are medically stable. This level of care is ideal for those who need consistent support and structure but do not require overnight hospitalization. If medical monitoring is needed, our team can help coordinate a higher level of care.
PHP includes individual therapy, group therapy, psychiatric services, and skill-building sessions. This structured environment helps you interrupt harmful patterns while developing practical tools for long-term recovery.
Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a step-down level of care while still providing meaningful clinical support. Clients attend therapy several days per week for a few hours at a time.
IOP allows you to begin applying what you’ve learned in treatment to real-world situations, such as meals, social events, and stressful moments, while continuing to receive guidance and support. This level of care is especially helpful for individuals balancing work, school, or family responsibilities.
Our Outpatient Program (OP) provides ongoing support for individuals with milder symptoms or those transitioning from higher levels of care. Sessions are typically scheduled once or twice per week and focus on maintaining progress and preventing relapse.
Outpatient care offers flexibility while still providing access to experienced clinicians and evidence-based treatment.
Therapy is a central part of eating disorder treatment at Cedar Point Mental Health Treatment. We use proven, evidence-based approaches to help you better understand and manage your symptoms.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), including enhanced CBT designed for eating disorders, helps you identify and change the thoughts and behaviors that keep disordered eating going. It focuses on establishing regular eating, challenging food rules, and reducing the weight placed on shape and size.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) helps individuals build skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness. These tools are especially helpful for managing urges to binge, purge, or restrict and for coping with difficult emotions in healthier ways.
Loved ones can play an important role in recovery. Family sessions help those closest to you understand eating disorders, improve communication, and learn how to support you at meals and during difficult moments.
One-on-one therapy sessions provide a space to explore your personal experiences and develop strategies tailored to your needs. Your therapist will work with you to identify triggers, understand patterns, and build a more compassionate relationship with yourself.
Group therapy offers the opportunity to connect with others who are experiencing similar challenges. Sharing experiences and learning from peers can help reduce secrecy, shame, and feelings of isolation and provide additional support.
Therapy is a central part of eating disorder treatment at Cedar Point Mental Health Treatment. We use proven, evidence-based approaches to help you better understand and manage your symptoms.
For some individuals, medication can play a helpful role in eating disorder treatment, particularly for co-occurring depression, anxiety, or obsessive thoughts, and for certain conditions such as bulimia or binge eating disorder. Our psychiatric team conducts thorough evaluations to determine whether medication may be appropriate for you.
If medication is recommended, we provide ongoing monitoring and adjustments to ensure it is effective and aligned with your needs. We take a collaborative approach, making sure you understand your options and feel comfortable with any decisions.
Medication is used alongside therapy to provide a more comprehensive treatment approach.
Still have questions? Feel free to reach out to us.
We treat a range of eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and other specified feeding or eating disorders. Many individuals also experience anxiety, depression, or trauma alongside an eating disorder, and we address those together as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.
If thoughts about food, weight, or your body take up much of your day, or if you are restricting, bingeing, purging, or exercising in ways that feel out of control, it may be time to seek help. You do not have to be underweight to have an eating disorder. Our team can assess your symptoms and recommend the appropriate level of care.
We offer Partial Hospitalization (PHP), Intensive Outpatient (IOP), and outpatient therapy. If your health requires closer medical monitoring, our team will help connect you with the right level of care so you can begin treatment safely.
We use evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and family involvement, along with individual and group therapy. These approaches help you change harmful patterns, cope with emotions, and build a healthier relationship with food.
Not everyone requires medication, but it can be helpful for some individuals, especially when depression, anxiety, or certain eating disorder symptoms are present. Our psychiatric providers will evaluate your needs and discuss whether medication may be beneficial. Any decision is made collaboratively based on your comfort and needs.
The length of treatment varies depending on the individual, the type and severity of the eating disorder, and the level of care. Recovery often takes time, and many people benefit from several weeks of structured programming followed by ongoing outpatient therapy for support and relapse prevention.
We work with many private insurance plans to help cover the cost of eating disorder treatment at Cedar Point Mental Health Treatment. Our admissions team will verify your benefits, explain your coverage, and provide a clear understanding of any out-of-pocket costs before you begin care.
Our goal is to make high-quality mental health care accessible while providing transparency throughout the process.
