Alsana - An Eating Disorder Community

CREDENTIALS/DISCIPLINE: Alsana has gathered the leading minds in the eating disorder industry to create an Adaptive Care Model that combines evidenced based approaches along with innovative interventions to treat the whole person. Our five dimensions of care, medical, psychological, nutritional, physical and relational, hold an equal seat at the table as we feel all are imperative within the process of reaching full recovery.
