How is your program different from all the other eating disorder programs?

Moonpointe: A Focus Center for Eating Disorders is unique for a number of different reasons:
• We are the only intensive outpatient program in the country with Dr. Anita Johnston as a clinical consultant, and the only program to integrate her new material into our eating disorder treatment.
• We are also a holistic program, which means our therapeutic modalities are based on healing mind, body and spirit and not just "stopping" the eating disorder behaviors.
• Our Center is a place of hope. We dwell on the solution.
• We are a very small program and are able to provide individual treatment planning. This allows us to provide excellent case management and no patient ever "gets lost".

What types of eating disorders do you treat?

We treat anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder and eating disorders not otherwise specified. Our admission counselors will be happy to gather all of your information and make sure our program is the right fit for you or a loved one. If we can't help you, we'll try to find someone who can. [Top]

How do I know if I need treatment?

Eating disorders can result in severe medical complications, some that can last a lifetime and in extreme cases can even result in death. Although it is never too late, early intervention gives patients the best chance of recovery. If you think that you or someone you love may have the beginning of an eating disorder, please call today and speak with an admissions counselor: 1.800-675-2041. [Top]

How often does your program meet

The Anorexia/Bulimia Program meets on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5:30 to 8:30pm, and the Compulsive/Emotional Eating Program meets on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5:30pm to 8:30pm. Dietary Consults are scheduled individually as needed. [Top]

Do you take insurance or offer any financial assistance?

Please call one of our admission specialists and they will walk you through all of our payment options and we offer courtesy insurance benefits checks. We are here for you, so we will do whatever we can to help you or a loved one enter our program. [Top]

How is your facility licensed?

We are licensed by the State of Tennessee, Mental Health License. [Top]

What can I expect after treatment?

At Moonpointe: A Focus Center for Eating Disorders, we begin planning your post-treatment as soon as a patient enters our program. We believe this is a critical element in treatment and each patient will leave our program with a detailed relapse prevention plan and a treatment team in place. The hard work often begins after a patient leaves our program and we are prepared to help each individual in any way we can during that transition. [Top]
