Anorexia Nervosa Treatment Program for Teens

Anorexia Nervosa is a serious eating disorder marked by extreme food restriction, an intense fear of gaining weight, and a distorted body image. For teens, it can impact every part of life—physically, emotionally, and socially.

At Silver State, we understand that anorexia is not a choice—it’s a complex mental health condition that requires specialized, comprehensive care. Our residential treatment program is designed to help teens restore their health, process the underlying emotional pain, and begin building a healthier relationship with food and themselves.

With a team of licensed therapists, medical professionals, dietitians, and mentors, we offer 24/7 support in a safe and compassionate environment. We don’t just treat the symptoms—we treat the whole person.

What is Anorexia Nervosa_

What is Anorexia Nervosa?

Anorexia Nervosa is characterized by restrictive eating, an intense fear of weight gain, and a distorted perception of one’s body. Teens with anorexia often develop strict rules around food, engage in excessive exercise, or experience guilt and anxiety after eating.

While anorexia is often linked to a desire for control or perfectionism, it is usually rooted in emotional pain, trauma, anxiety, or a deep need to feel safe. The condition can lead to serious health complications, including malnutrition, heart problems, and hormonal imbalances.

At Silver State, we help teens understand that recovery is possible—and that their worth is not tied to their weight or appearance.

Signs and Symptoms of Anorexia Nervosa in Teens

Early intervention is critical. Recognizing the signs of anorexia can help prevent serious health consequences and long-term emotional harm. Common signs include:

  • Dramatic weight loss

  • Intense fear of gaining weight

  • Skipping meals or eating very small portions

  • Obsessive calorie counting or food rituals

  • Avoiding meals with others

  • Excessive exercise or compulsive movement

  • Preoccupation with weight, shape, or dieting

  • Fatigue, dizziness, or irregular menstruation

If your teen shows signs of anorexia, our residential program can provide the structure, supervision, and professional care they need to begin healing.

Why Individualized Plans Matter for Teens with Anorexia Nervosa

Every teen’s experience with anorexia is different. That’s why our treatment begins with a full clinical and nutritional assessment to understand each teen’s physical health, emotional history, and psychological needs.

From there, we build an individualized care plan that may include:

  • Medical monitoring and stabilization

  • Nutritional rehabilitation

  • Individual and group therapy

  • Body image work

  • Family therapy and education

  • Life skills and emotional regulation

Recovery from anorexia takes time, patience, and support. We walk with teens and families every step of the way—helping them move from fear and shame to strength and self-acceptance.

The Silver State Adolescent Approach

At Silver State, we offer more than symptom relief—we offer a path to freedom from the mental and physical toll of anorexia. We treat teens with compassion, not control. With clinical excellence and deep respect for the challenges they face, we help them rediscover their identity beyond the disorder.

Our residential setting provides consistent meals, therapeutic support, and a calm, structured space where recovery can take root. Teens learn to trust food, their bodies, and themselves again—often for the first time in years.

Healing is possible. And at Silver State, it begins with hope, understanding, and a team that never gives up.
