What is Evidence-Based Treatment?

Evidence-based treatment refers to therapies and interventions that have been rigorously researched, tested, and shown to be effective in treating eating disorders. These treatments go beyond temporary symptom relief — they target the underlying thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that drive disordered eating.

At Virtue Recovery, evidence-based treatment is the foundation of everything we do. From therapy sessions to nutritional counseling and holistic healing practices, our programs are guided by proven methods tailored to each client’s unique needs.
