EDCare is thrilled to announce the release of our 7^th Annual Experience Calendar!

For over 20 years, EDCare has provided life-saving eating disorder treatment to those in need. Our team of experts know the relentless and intrusive nature of eating disorder thoughts, feelings, and emotions. One form of psychotherapy used in the treatment of eating disorders is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). This year, our 2022 Experience Calendar was developed around the theory of ACT and its 6 core principles.

1. Acceptance
2. Cognitive Defusion
3. Being Present
4. Self as Context
5. Values
6. Committed Action

Through these concepts,  individuals learn that instead of attempting to “get rid of” or “change” their eating disorder thoughts and feelings, there is an alternative and more useful skill they can turn to – the power of flexibility! Check out our calendar to learn more!

We hope you also enjoy exploring EDCare’s empowerment-based treatment philosophy CAMSA®. Each month, we identify one concept for you to focus on. In doing so, you will gain a deeper understanding of yourself through Connection, Acceptance, Mindfulness, Sense of Self, and Action.
