No One Says I Want to be defined by food.

The Eating Disorders Program

That's why we have a multi-disciplinary team of physicians, psychologists, therapists and dietitians to help patients heal physically, emotionally, socially and nutritionally.

 Hope. Understanding. Healing. Wholeness.

Eating disorders, despite what most people think, are not about vanity or weight. They're psychological illnesses in which food is used as a tool to cope emotionally and gain control over one's life and circumstances.

L.E. Phillips-Libertas understands that the conditions of an eating disorder, whether it's anorexia nervosa, bulimia or binge eating, are extremely complex. Recovery is literally a matter of life and death.

With patience, hope, sensitivity and guidance, L.E. Phillips-Libertas offers those with eating disorders the strength, insight and empowerment to be psychologically and emotionally well.

Healing is possible.
