Eating Recovery Center

“ERC was absolutely necessary for our daughter. It was very hard for her to be there, but we really had no choice. The staff that we met were all well-intentioned and helpful. We were happy with the primary therapist and dietician. I do wish our daughter had had more 1 on 1 therapy; there is lots of emphasis on groups which I think became quite old and redundant. Many of them seemed not to apply well to our daughter as well.”

“ERC saved my life, I was 14 when I was admitted and I was so scared and I had no hope in life. I am now A young adult, I graduated high school early, and I have became a cosmetologist. Through my whole journey in life and recovery, I have kept ERC in my heart. I can’t believe it’s been four years since I was there and without them, I wouldn’t be here. Thank you ERC, you guys have saved and changed my life🩷.”

“My daughter was age 15 when her eating disorder emerged rapidly after a trauma. We were guided by our children's hospital to make the trip to Denver and it was totally worth it! She received excellent, compassionate care and I was educated as a parent during PHP how to work with her when we returned home. Two years later, her recovery has endured and we have been able to head off relapse. I am very thankful to the team for the comprehensive care and the way she was treated.”

“ERC- Juniper was a stepping stone in the recovery journey of my daughter. They offered top notch counseling for both my daughter and our family. The resources offered supported us through the long road of recovery well past our time at ERC. Although ERC was not a one stop shop for what my daughter needed to recover, I still give them credit for saving her life. This marathon is long and takes alot of stops along the path. Thank you ERC!”

“Quality treatment, helped me feel at home in recovery”

“ERC saved my life. I came in for treatment that I am now confident I would have died without. I have struggled since, but the skills I learned at ERC have allowed me to stay out of the hospital and continue living my life in recovery. The program was also very queer accepting. I was one of several queer people in the milieu, which was a concern of mine before I started.”

“Finding ERC 24 hour residential care was exactly what I needed to begin my journey to recovery. I found the staff to be knowledgeable about the struggles I was facing, and empathetic as I learned to use new coping skills. It wasn’t easy to be away from family and friends, but I found I was exactly where I needed to be to focus on myself and heal physically and emotionally. Thank you, ERC, for being there for me when I wasn’t able to do it alone.”

“ERC has been so helpful for my clients who need more care and support than a once-a-week, outpatient appointment can provide. They ensure my clients are nourished and safe, and they communicate with me about client progress. I'm so glad they're here to help!”

“Very good supportive staff and peer group”

“I have tried a lot of different centers for a residential and php setting and can say with complete confidence that ERC Denver is the one that had the most significant impact. My team and the other staff managed to be both incredibly empathetic and still challenge me in ways that were necessary for the best of my recovery. Nobody likes going to ED treatment, but ERC Denver was a place of community and healing for me and I will never not be grateful for my time there.”

“Being at ERC changed my life. I was struggling to maintain recovery before I started their PHP program. After some time in PHP I was able to accept the help I needed, with all the support from PHP hours/staff. I loved everyone on my team, and having peer support helped me so much; and I will continue to do groups even though my time at ERC ended. I highly recommend ERC to anyone struggling with and ED or disordered eating habits.”

“ERC was a life-changer for me, and a life-saver. After 10 years in my eating disorder, I really needed some kind, but also stubborn and intelligent people to guide me into recovery, and that is what I found at ERC Irvine. Their programming along with my willingness (finally) to recover was exactly what I needed, and I am eternally grateful to every aspect of my experience. From the podcast (that I started listening to before I went to the facility), to my care team, and even to the alumni support afterwards, everything has been life changing for me and I cannot express that enough.”

“I felt safe and comfortable! My team was amazing! Rachel and Kim were amazing! And the program works!”
