Support for Your Mental Health and Nutrition
Our Therapy & Nutrition Services
Therapy
Individual Therapy
Family Therapy
Family counseling usually involves parents, siblings and extended family members into the treatment process. We focus on patterns of communication, parenting styles, personalities and other influences. Family plays an important role in our emotional, physical and spiritual development since each individual in the family system impacts and is impacted by the others. Depending on the unique needs and goals of the family, different combinations of family members may participate in each therapy session.
Couples Therapy
We work with couples who are dating, thinking about taking the next step, engaged, or married. Whether the therapy is to resolve conflict, heal wounds from the past, establish healthy boundaries, or simply strengthen the relationship, no matter the issue, we are here to help. Regaining relational intimacy is accomplished through honest and connected experiences.
Eating Disorder Treatment
Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT)
is a therapeutic approach to treating medical conditions and improving health through the use of individualized nutrition interventions. MNT typically involves assessing the patient’s nutritional status, diagnosing specific nutritional problems, and designing a personalized plan to correct any deficiencies, manage disease, or address particular health needs. For a patient with an eating disorder, MNT plays a crucial role in both nutritional rehabilitation and psychological recovery by:
- Restoring Normal Eating Patterns: MNT provides structured meal plans and nutritional guidance to help the patient regain healthy eating habits, correct nutritional deficiencies, and avoid harmful cycles of restriction, overeating, or purging.
- Addressing Malnutrition: Many individuals with eating disorders suffer from malnutrition, which MNT helps to reverse by ensuring balanced meals that meet the patient’s specific calorie, protein, fat, and micronutrient needs.
- Improving Physical and Mental Health: Proper nutrition can support brain function, hormone balance, and emotional well-being, which is vital for the patient’s mental health and recovery from an eating disorder.
- Collaborative Care: MNT often involves a multidisciplinary team, including dietitians, therapists, and physicians, working together to address both the physical and emotional aspects of the disorder.
By restoring proper nutrition and supporting emotional healing, MNT can greatly improve recovery outcomes for those with eating disorders.

How does your eating disorder program work?
We are an outpatient private practice treatment center that offers individual therapy, family therapy, and nutrition services. It is common for a new client to book an initial assessment with a therapist and an initial assessment with a dietitian. However, treatment is tailored to each client or family and you may choose to see providers for all of these areas or only one. If you choose to only see a therapist or only see a dietitian, your provider may recommend seeing the other at Restore based on your needs.
Do I need a therapist and a dietitian for my eating disorder? What’s the difference?
It is common for a new client to book an initial assessment with a therapist and an initial assessment with a dietitian. However, treatment is tailored to each client or family and you may choose to see providers for all of these areas or only one. If you choose to only see a therapist or only see a dietitian, your provider may recommend seeing the other at Restore based on your needs. A therapist will work with you to explore the roots of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors from a psychological perspective. A dietitian will work with you on nutrition education, meal plans, and reviewing labs/vitals. Please see below for more specifics on the value of having a dietitian.
Do you accept insurance?
We are a cash pay private practice and are not in-network with any insurance companies at this time. We are out of network providers for TriCare and have a limited number of spots open for TriCare clients. If you have TriCare, give us a call to see if we have any open spots. As a courtesy, we provide superbills that you can submit to your insurance company to seek reimbursement, if you so choose. Restore does not guarantee that you will receive reimbursement from your insurance company, but we are happy to provide these superbills.
Can you work with my doctor, psychiatrist, or other provider?
Yes! We are happy to coordinate care and share information with other providers you see with your written permission. You can request release of information (ROI) forms be sent to you from our office manager. This form gives us permission to speak with a specific provider. It is best practice to have a signed ROI both at our practice for the provider you want us to be able to speak to and a signed ROI for Restore Family Therapy with that provider.
How often will I meet with my providers?
Treatment is individualized for each client and depends on a number of factors. It is typical to meet with your provider weekly, but some clients meet with their provider every 2 weeks, once a month, or as needed. Your provider will be able to give you a better idea of how often they recommend meeting in your initial assessment.
