Navigating Higher Levels of Care for Eating Disorder Treatment: Pros and Cons

When living in places like Austin, Washington D.C., and San Diego, dealing with eating disorders like binge eating, ARFID, anorexia, and bulimia, the severity of the condition often dictates the type of treatment required. For many, standard outpatient care may not be sufficient, and a higher level of care becomes necessary. Higher levels of care, including partial hospitalization programs (PHP), intensive outpatient programs (IOP), and residential treatment, offer more structured and intensive treatment options. Each comes, however, with its own set of advantages and challenges. In this blog post, we’ll explore the pros and cons of these higher levels of care to help you make informed decisions about eating disorder treatment options in California, Texas, New York, and elsewhere.
