I have been recently looking into any treatment I can get. I have found this treatment centre which has no waiting list right now.
This is the email I got from them when inquiring:
"Hi Jennifer, thanks for your email and for your interest in Westwind. I'm happy to give you some info about our residential program. It's great that you're seeking support for yourself, which I know can be a challenging thing to do! Recovery from the eating disorder is possible!
Our residential program offers some independence, so it is best suited for people who are ready and willing to work on change. Our counselors and dietitian work collaboratively with each client, so they have a hand in deciding their recovery goals and the pace they want to tackle them. Because of this we require people to be medically stable to be in our program. Each program day includes groups, a one-on-one session and staff supervised meal support. We operate in a home like setting and each client gets their own bedroom. The cost for the program is $2200 CAD weekly. We're also currently offering to cover the cost of travel to and from Westwind for clients who stay with us a minimum of 12 weeks, which tends to be the average length of stay. The program does not have a structured length and people stay for various lengths of time depending on their goals and progress. Some people also come with a set length of stay in mind due to finances or other obligations such as school or work. We ask each client to give us a minimum 2 weeks notice of departure.
We currently have space available in the program so there is no wait list right now. The process for admission would include completing a phone intake with one of our staff where we would ask you a few questions about the eating disorder, and we could also use this time to answer any questions you might have about the program. We would then email you some paperwork to be completed and returned to us. Once we've received the paperwork we’d process the non-refundable deposit of $500 CAD to hold your spot, which would be attributed towards the cost of your stay.
Please feel free to let us know if you have any other questions, or if you’d like to arrange a time to chat on the phone or over skype. I've cc'd this email to Tresa who is the other director at Westwind, as I'm off this coming week, and she'd be happy to chat with you. "
I am reaching out in hopes that I can get the treatment I need to recover from anorexia. If your able to donate or even just share the link I will post it below!
Thanks so much for all of your support!
