Frequently Asked Questions about the CPC Day Program

I have tried many different eating disorder treatment programs, how is CPC’s Day Program different? 

CPC is a small, intensely private and personal treatment setting.  We accept only up to 7 patients in one group at a time enabling our patients to receive a tremendous amount of attention as well as feelings of confidence that no aspect of their care is overlooked.  Additional critical features that set CPC apart from other treatment programs is our commitment to highly individualized treatment.  There is nothing standardized about our approach; rather, we consider each patient’s very unique needs and circumstances and construct a treatment process based on what we observe will be most beneficial to the individual.  This philosophy pertains to patient meal planning as well, as each patient has different nutritional needs and distinctive food preferences, goals, and desires.  We are committed to tailoring treatment to facilitate the most meaningful and lasting recovery for each of our patients and believe this can only be accomplished if our patients’ individuality is thoroughly respected and considered throughout.  Below are points that highlight what our patients appreciate about the eating disorder treatment programs at CPC:

  • An unparalleled nutrition program
