Eating Disorder and Addiction Clinic

The Eating Disorder and Addiction Clinic offers specialized outpatient treatment to clients (both male and female) with substance abuse accompanied by an eating disorder and to clients with concurrent substance use and social phobia and/or generalized anxiety disorder.

The treatment approaches involve a variety of modalities, which may include one or more of the following:

• weekly group sessions
• weekly one-hour individual psychotherapy sessions
• meetings with a dietician
• after-hours telephone consultation. 

The program provides integrated concurrent treatment for both eating disorders and substance use disorders. Clients commit to attend treatment for a minimum of 10 weeks to one year. Family issues (support, education, intervention) are addressed with individual family members as needed.

The treatment program involves weekly group sessions and individual sessions depending on the treatment stream. The initial assessment process involves 2 to 3 appointments that will be booked as soon as possible. While waiting for your assessment, please maintain contact with your GP and explore other treatment options if on a waiting list.

We require that you provide us with a referral from your GP or mental health professional. You will find the appropriate forms with the links below.
