"I love the relationships I have formed with the other clients here. These are relationships I know will last me a lifetime. I also loved that for the most part our therapists have had eating disorders and were really able to give their input in our groups."

"Thanks to all of the staff for just being the most wonderful, caring, sincere and loving people I have met in my life."

"I loved the staff more than anything. I loved that they understood everything that I said and were so fun and inspirational."

"The staff at the EDCC was amazing. They are an example of the kind of woman I want to be in the future. They know what they are doing here. They made me feel safe, comforted, and no matter what I had a community that I belonged to."

"The EDCC has helped me immeasurably. They have helped me become more aware of all of my eating disorder habits, my depression, and my struggles. I feel that I am more in touch with my goals and values and I will forever be grateful to the EDCC for all that they have done for me and my life."

"I haven't purged for over 3 weeks, I let myself eat desserts for snack, and I am less concerned about calories. Instead I am able to look at my level of hunger and fullness to tell me when to stop eating."

"The staff and their personable attitudes and laid back demeanors were the first thing I noticed when coming in here and it has stuck with me to this very day. I think that it is the foundation of this treatment center and the rest stems from that."

"I had the most wonderful experience of my life here. I would not change a thing that was said to me, taught to me or how I acted throughout this program. From the moment I walked in the door I have been learning and I know I will continue to learn from this brilliant, knowledgeable and inspiring staff. I was encouraged to really find myself even if it is not what I was taught to believe in growing up. For the first time in my life I feel like I know who I am and I feel so confident about going out in the world and pursuing my passions and continue to show the world who I REALLY am. I owe so much of my progress to the team."

"Thank you for giving me the beginning of a life not consumed by an eating disorder."

"The EDCC has provided me with a better understanding of how to eat and how my eating disorder was affecting my life. I realize now that without my eating disorder running my life I am capable of having real relationships and supporting myself. I've learned how to self-soothe and have fun and be comfortable around people I know and don't know. Although know I have a lot of work ahead of me the EDCC has given me a good foundation to build a full recovery on. I feel much better about myself as a soul and know that I'm not just a body."

"I feel really fortunate and grateful to everyone here. They were so loving and supportive even when they didn't need to be...it was in there beings. They set boundaries when I needed them and showed me how to be true to myself, even in confrontations."
