Equip - Virtual Eating Disorder Treatment – Addiction Rehab in New York, New York

Equip is a completely virtual program designed for individuals dealing with eating disorders, seamlessly integrating into their everyday lives and adjusting as needed throughout their recovery process. Each participant is paired with a dedicated multidisciplinary team of five professionals who support them from start to finish, eliminating the need to transition between different care teams and settings. Insurance coverage is available, and there are no waiting periods, making Equip a valuable option for personalized assistance with all types of eating disorders – recognizing that recovery is unique for everyone. The program leverages both professional expertise and personal experiences to deliver well-rounded support. Utilizing only the most effective, evidence-based treatment strategies, Equip formulates tailor-made care plans for each individual. Patients receive attentive care from their committed team, which provides therapy, nutritional guidance, medical support, and mentorship. In addition to one-on-one sessions, participants and their families can access various support groups, workshops, meal guidance, body image programs, and additional resources. Every week, Equip facilitates numerous virtual support groups, allowing patients and family members to engage anonymously. These groups cater to diverse identities and specific needs, including dedicated spaces for 2SLGBTQIA+ adults and teens, men, BIPOC individuals, athletes, and more. Caregiver groups are focused on practical skills and shared experiences, covering topics like support for those assisting with Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) and gender-diverse patients. One of the key elements of Equip's approach is seeking insurance authorization for treatment lasting up to a year, helping to reduce the potential for relapse during the initial stages of recovery. Patients collaborate with their care teams to develop relapse prevention strategies that address potential triggers and stressful situations. Even after initial stabilization, the care team continues to play a role, providing a supportive framework as individuals face challenges in the crucial early months of their recovery journey.
