TheWithin results

Most of our patients have tried multiple other treatment programs, but with minimal success. Within is different. Offering treatment in your usual environment—where everyday life happens, where your schedule is regular, and you’re surrounded by familiar people—gives you a better chance of success.

Receiving treatment and therapy in a remote setting is easily accessible and more convenient than traditional in-person programs, which can be a more encouraging and effective eating disorder treatment environment.

Average eating disorder symptoms decrease by 43% from admission to discharge, compared to 35% at an in-person treatment program. This is thanks to a combination of therapy, group sessions, meal delivery, education, and family involvement in the program.

Major depressive disorder occurs in 50-75% of those suffering from eating disorders so it’s important to address this mental illness simultaneously. Depression is treated as part of the Within program via different modes of therapy and additional support.

Through regular therapy sessions, the majority of our patients report reduced symptoms of depression after completing their program. This is true for all age groups, from teens to seniors.

The majority of patients with eating disorders also suffer from co-occurring mental illnesses, such as anxiety. In fact, eating disorders are often referred to as stress and anxiety disorders. Your Within team will address your anxiety and work with you to reduce these symptoms.

Your Within Health program includes both individual and group therapy sessions to help to address underlying issues that may be contributing to anxiety symptoms. We work through any mental and physical challenges which may be causing your anxiety or worsening your eating disorder symptoms.

Eating disorders negatively impact your quality of life, whether it affects your personal relationships or causes issues at work. After completing the Within program, 86% of our patients reported an improved quality of life, including in their financial, work/school, and physical aspects.

Average quality of life improves by 38% from admission to discharge compared to between 20-30% at in-person treatment programs.

Therapy sessions, group support, meal delivery, and access to registered dietitians and food specialists all contribute to improving our patients’ quality of lives. Even upon completion of our program, ongoing support via our alumni program can also help to improve quality of life, through regular group sessions and optional therapy.

Intuitive eating is an important part of the Within program and recovering from an eating disorder. This approach helps you listen to your body and learn how to eat what is right for you. Intuitive eating connects you with your internal wisdom to guide not only your intake but to increase your trust in yourself through the process of recognizing and responding to your body and mind’s needs.

We provide meal delivery throughout your time in the Within Health program to help you build mastery around food. You also have the support of registered dietitians and food specialists who will help you build a foundation for mindful and intuitive eating, to allow this skill to become second nature and to support your enduring recovery.
