Harmony Place at St. Joseph's Villa  |
Harmony Place is an adolescent eating disorders residential program offering comprehensive treatment to boys and girls (age 12-18) struggling with an eating disorder. The first adolescent residential program in New York State is led by a multi-disciplinary team of health care professionals including nurses, psychiatrists, clinical therapists and physicians.
At Harmony Place, girls and boys receive personalized treatment, around-the clock supervision and support in a small, homelike environment. The program offers 20 group therapies per teen with an additional 8 hours of individual/ family therapies. Therapeutic sessions use empirically-based approaches to focus on client needs.
Families are vital in the teen's recovery plans. While the program focuses on the interruption and stabilization of the child's symptoms, family members will experience hands-on therapy sessions to learn about eating disorders and recovery at home. Harmony Place is located on the suburban campus of St. Joseph's Villa in Rochester, NY. |
