Why Choose Us

THRIVE Eating Disorder Program

Other Eating Disorder Programs

 

We are Atlanta’s ONLY full-service, all-inclusive eating disorder treatment program.  When you pay for our service you get residential, inpatient type of care with a comparable number of therapy groups.  Additionally, you won’t have to pay an extra penny once enrolled in our program.  All your co-pays for your psychiatrist visits are covered as well as your meals.  You get individual therapy included every week with one of our highly trained staff members.  All program materials are also included.

 

Other intensive outpatient programs around the country often are only 3-4 days a week for an average of 3 hours per day.  They often don’t include individual therapy, medication management, or meals.  You often have to pay a base amount for the program where you are offered minimal services and the rest of the services are a la carte.

 

The cost to attend our IOP-I for 3 months would be less than an inpatient residential facility for only 1 month.  Moreover, the services are very comparable in terms of what groups are run and the quality of treatment.  Also, there is the added advantage of being able to stay close to home where we believe support from family and friends is paramount to recovery.

 

Other inpatient, residential treatment facilities can cost on average between $30K and $50k per month and treatment time can last from 1-3 months on average for a total cost of $30K for month to $150K for 3 months.

 

We limit the number of individuals enrolled in our program at any given time.  This allows us to focus on the individual.  We are designed to treat the whole person and will go to every effort to see that happen.

 

Other programs try to enroll as many individuals as they can into their programs.  The programs become financially-based and less person-centered.
