Overview
The Renfrew Center provides treatment for eating disorders with a network of 15 locations offering residential, day treatment, intensive outpatient, outpatient, and virtual services. Its approach rests on the The Renfrew Center Unified Treatment Model for Eating Disorders, an evidence-based, emotion-focused therapy that combines individual and group therapy with a wide range of supporting services tailored to each level of care. Compared with others, Renfrew stands out as a pioneer (since 1985) and the first residential eating disorder facility, backed by broad insurance acceptance and preferred provider status. The goal is to help cisgender adolescent girls and adult women, transgender, and non-binary individuals move into recovery and improve functioning in daily life.
