Why Our Practice Makes Eating Disorder Recovery Accessible to Everyone

enlighten

Finding support for eating disorder recovery shouldn’t be limited by financial barriers. At Enlighten Counseling and Care, we believe that everyone deserves compassionate, high-quality care, regardless of their financial situation. That’s why we accept insurance and offer a sliding scale for our services, ensuring that more people in our community can access the support they need.

In this blog, we’ll share what makes our practice different and how we’re committed to making eating disorder recovery accessible and inclusive.




We Accept Insurance to Reduce Financial Barriers

Many eating disorder treatment providers operate on a private-pay model, which can make care unattainable for those who rely on insurance. At Enlighten, we know that recovery is a journey that requires ongoing support, and we don’t want finances to stand in the way of that.

By accepting insurance, we help ease the financial burden so that clients can focus on healing, not worrying about the cost of care.

If you’re unsure whether your insurance covers our services, we’re happy to help navigate the process and provide clarity on your options.


We Offer a Sliding Scale for Those Without Coverage

For those who don’t have insurance or whose insurance doesn’t cover nutrition therapy, we offer a sliding scale fee structure based on financial need. This means that we adjust our fees to make services more affordable, ensuring that no one is turned away due to cost.

We believe that:

✔️ Everyone deserves access to evidence-based eating disorder support

✔️ Finances shouldn’t determine who gets the help they need

✔️ Healing is possible when clients have the right support system

If you’re unsure whether you qualify for our sliding scale, don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re here to help make care as accessible as possible.


We Provide Compassionate, Non-Diet, Weight-Inclusive Care

At Enlighten Counseling and Care we take a weight-inclusive, non-diet approach to eating disorder recovery. This means we never prescribe restrictive meal plans or promote weight loss as a goal. Instead, we help clients:

✨ Rebuild trust with food and their bodies

✨ Move toward intuitive, flexible eating

✨ Develop self-compassion and coping skills

✨ Break free from diet culture and harmful food rules

Our approach is rooted in evidence-based care, ensuring that each client receives personalized, ethical, and compassionate support.


We’re Deeply Rooted in the Community

Our practice isn’t just about providing care—we’re dedicated to advocating for greater access to eating disorder treatment and fostering a supportive community. Whether it’s through local partnerships, educational workshops, or support groups, we strive to create a space where individuals and families feel seen, heard, and supported.
