Treating eating disorders alongside co-occurring substance use can be complex, and many individuals wonder what should be addressed first—or what support is available when you’re in treatment for an eating disorder. In this episode, Laura and Sam sit down with Alexis Hill, one of the Team Leaders at Renfrew’s residential program in Philadelphia, to explore these important questions. Alexis shares insight into Renfrew’s specialized programming, including individualized treatment goals, substance use–specific groups, opportunities to engage in community support, and ways to effectively utilize one’s support system. We'll uncover the ways Renfrew's treatment model is able to target emotional avoidance, the common denominator of both disorders. If you or someone you know is navigating both an eating disorder and substance use, this episode highlights how treating both is possible—and how the power of community can foster sustainable change.
