Bulimia Treatment

Find Freedom from Disordered Eating and Embrace Lasting Wellness

Bulimia nervosa is a harmful cycle of binge eating followed by purging behaviors, often driven by emotional distress and body image concerns. Left untreated, it can lead to serious medical complications and a diminished sense of self-worth. At Casa Leona Treatment Center, we provide compassionate, comprehensive care to help individuals break free from the cycle of bulimia, rebuild a healthy relationship with food, and reclaim control over their lives.

"We treat these conditions in conjunction with substance use, not independently"

Understanding Bulimia Nervosa

Bulimia is a complex eating disorder marked by episodes of excessive food consumption followed by efforts to “undo” the intake—often through vomiting, laxatives, fasting, or overexercising. These behaviors are typically accompanied by shame, anxiety, and a distorted body image, which reinforce the cycle of disordered eating.

Common Symptoms of Bulimia Include:

  • Recurrent binge-purge episodes and strict dietary restrictions

  • Physical effects such as sore throat, dental issues, and digestive problems

  • Emotional struggles like guilt, anxiety, and low self-esteem

  • Obsessive concern with body shape and weight

  • Secretive eating behaviors or avoiding meals with others

Bulimia is not just about food—it’s a mental health disorder that often stems from underlying emotional pain. Effective treatment must go beyond symptom management to address the root causes and help individuals build long-term resilience.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Bulimia Treatment

Our evidence-based and holistic approach ensures each client receives the care, tools, and support necessary for recovery. Treatment plans at Casa Leona are personalized to meet each individual’s unique emotional, physical, and psychological needs.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment

Bulimia often coexists with depression, anxiety, trauma, or substance use. Our integrated treatment model addresses all co-occurring conditions together for better, lasting outcomes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a cornerstone of eating disorder treatment. It helps clients identify the thought patterns that fuel disordered behaviors and replace them with healthier coping mechanisms.

Family-Based Therapy (FBT)

Particularly effective for adolescents, FBT actively involves loved ones in the recovery process, strengthening family dynamics and improving long-term success.

Nutritional Counseling

Our registered dietitians guide clients in developing meal plans, restoring physical health, and removing fear and guilt associated with eating.

Medical Monitoring

Given the health risks of bulimia, we provide close medical supervision to ensure safety during recovery and manage any complications.

Relapse Prevention and Aftercare

We empower individuals with the skills and support needed to navigate life post-treatment. Our aftercare plans include continued therapy, community resources, and strategies for managing triggers and stress.
