Haven of Hope Eating Disorder Care Center: Adult Group Therapy for Eating Disorders

Adult Group Therapy for Eating Disorders In Tennessee

We specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy, a unique, transformative approach for healing and personal growth.

Therapy groups are a key part of treatment at Haven Of Hope Eating Disorder Care Center. Group therapy helps encourage individuals to come out of their feelings of isolation, as they are shown that others face some of the same problems. Because of this, eating disorder professionals tend to make group counseling sessions a central part of each recovery plan.

Anecdotally, many former clients also point to group therapy as their favorite part of treatment. The varied perspectives and experiences in the group dynamic can help many individuals achieve personal growth and work through barriers to recovery.

At Haven of Hope, Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a foundational approach in group therapy, helping clients understand and heal the different parts of themselves that contribute to disordered eating. Through IFS-informed group exercises, clients learn to identify and challenge disordered eating thoughts, develop self-compassion, and strengthen their connection to their core self, fostering lasting recovery.
