Castlewood Treatment Center
800 Holland Road
St. Louis, MO
Phone: 888.822.8938
email: info@castlewoodtc.com
Eating disorders consist of a complex array of psychological and physical symptoms and complications. Castlewood's treatment philosophy is to provide the highest quality, multi-modal intervention to facilitate the fullest recovery possible. Treatment goals include the restoration of body weight to near ideal, understanding and developing healthy eating behaviors, increasing autonomy from compulsive patterns and facilitating an enhanced attitude toward self and body.
Castlewood's homelike setting is comfortable and intimate, allowing for personalized care and highly individualized treatment planning. Eating disorders have many developmental pathways and a variety of co-morbid factors which influence diagnosis, treatment prognosis, and outcome such as personality disorder, Axis 1 psychiatric disorders, and trauma history (Figure 1). Each individual with an eating disorder is both similar and different, which is the most critical factor in establishing individualized treatment plan and treatment goals.
Castlewood's limited number of residents coupled with the high staff to patient ratio provides for effective response prevention relative to problematic behaviors such as purging, binge eating, and compulsive exercise. High quality physician and nursing care with 24 hour staff monitoring, allows for the provision of active pharmacological intervention and management and the thorough treatment of co-morbid disorders.
Our dietician works with clients both individually and in group settings, enabling them to shape their eating behaviors and beliefs towards increasing health. Residents are involved in meal planning, food shopping, and preparation, in order to facilitate the process of breaking the rigidity of destructive rituals and allowing for the emergence of healthy and flexible eating patterns. Patients participate in individual psychotherapy four times weekly, addressing anxiety and resistance related to their eating behavior, cognitive distortions, problems with emotional regulation, and the various issues involved in the etiology and maintenance of the destructive eating patterns.
Personal strengths, resources, and life ambitions are explored to empower clients to begin building a life around more appropriate goals and expectations, facilitating personal growth beyond the constraints of their eating disorders. Body image work, movement therapy, Yoga, and supervised exercise are tailored to each resident's needs in order to facilitate increased comfort and respect for the body. Daily groups provide psycho-education, as well as cognitive, family of origin and expressive therapy. Journaling exercises and between-session assignments are provided to extend the forward movement of the therapeutic process. Trauma resolution work is available for clients where earlier traumatic experiences have contributed to the development and/or maintenance of current symptomatology.
Scheduled family weekends, especially prior to discharge, help identify key issues in transitioning back to the home environment. Family therapy is provided where indicated and feasible. The anticipated length of stay varies, with two to four months being average for the eating disorder, residential care treatment setting.
