Equip - Virtual Eating Disorder Treatment

Equip is a fully virtual eating disorder program that integrates into daily life and evolves with the patient. Each patient is matched with a multidisciplinary, 5-person care team that remains with them throughout their entire recovery journey, instead of “stepping down” to new care teams and environments. Covered by insurance and with no waitlist, Equip offers personalized support for all eating disorder diagnoses — because recovery is never one-size-fits-all.
Equip combines clinical expertise with lived experience to give patients the comprehensive support they need. They use only leading, evidence-based treatment modalities to craft a personalized care plan. They match each patient with a dedicated care team that provides therapy, nutritional counseling, medical care, and mentorship. Beyond provider sessions, patients and their loved ones have access to support groups, workshops, meal support, body image work, and more.
Equip offers dozens of virtual support groups each week, welcoming patients and loved ones to connect anonymously. Groups span a wide range of identities and needs. Patients can join spaces for 2SLGBTQIA+ adults and teens, men, BIPOC patients, athletes, and more. Caregiver groups focus on skill-building and shared experience, including groups specifically for those supporting Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) or gender-diverse patients, for example.
One reason Equip seeks insurance authorization for up to a year of treatment is to help patients prevent relapse during early recovery. Each patient works with their team on a relapse prevention plan to prepare for triggers and stressors. Even after stabilization, the care team remains involved, offering a safety net as patients navigate challenges during the vulnerable first few months in recovery.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Equip - Virtual Eating Disorder Treatment provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Equip - Virtual Eating Disorder Treatment offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 7 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Equip - Virtual Eating Disorder Treatment works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
