The Meadows Outpatient – Scottsdale Specialized Eating Disorder Treatment
Our Program Offers Both Intensive Outpatient Care and a Partial Hospitalization Program
Our Scottsdale-based Eating Disorder Intensive Outpatient Program offers trauma-focused care through The Meadows Model, targeting the root causes of eating disorders while providing support for mental and physical recovery. The program features both Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) levels to meet individual recovery needs. While both levels include medical, psychiatric, and nutritional support, the ED PHP typically has a minimum length of stay of 6 weeks, allowing for more intensive engagement and clinical support. Our IOP provides greater flexibility for individuals who need structured care with more independence.
Amenities
Group and one-on-one therapy is essential to our program, but we know that healing also happens through other avenues. That’s why we employ a wide range of methods and holistic options to ensure a well-rounded treatment experience that incorporates the mind, body, and soul.
