Strict no nonsense house. They hold you accountable and do their best to support you in your recovery. Counselors could stand to Listen more rather than barking their wisdom at clients but other than that they do well enough to keep you on track. I'm grateful for the opportunity to be here.

Great place for recovery and getting yourself back together! Just follow the rules and you should be fine. Like any other places there are some that can be very strict(it s for your own good), and remember not to give up.

Sometimes the front desk can be difficult, but I don t have to deal with them all that often. My actual therapist is amazing. I ve been seeing her for about four years now and I am so fortunate to be working with her. She is super dedicated and really cares. She is also well trained and very competent. I trust her and I think she s an amazing therapist. I also saw a couples counselor for a short time at Arbour Allston and felt the same way about her - I thought she was incredibly competent and also just a genuinely good human who cared about the service she was providing and the outcome of the treatment. In my experience, it s also easier to find a therapist here than other places because they have more therapists on staff. Many other places there are very long waitlists which can be very frustrating and detrimental to your health if you re in a crisis.

Very strict but worth it. They do a great job I just feel they need to be a little bit more real and get off the cloud. And try to be a bit more understanding

I have a lot to say about CEDC, most of which is positive, some of which is less so simply because of its nature and the fact that it is a treatment center. I spent 3 months on the adolescent floor at CEDC and was lucky enough to have a very supportive care team and community. I remember being incredibly nervous to start at CEDC, and reading these reviews honestly just made that anxiety worse- so for whoever is reading this, whether it s for yourself or someone you love, please take a deep breath because I promise that it s going to be okay.On a positive note, the meals work really well and there are lots of options to meet dietary needs, and the diet techs are some of the loveliest people that you will ever meet. The facilities are clean and the bathroom system works very well and offers as much privacy as can be hoped for. The Resident Counselors are extremely kind and go above and beyond in the ways that they care for and interact with patients. There is also an hour of guaranteed tech time for the adolescent floor (which might not seem like a lot, but is much more than other programs allow) The tutor is also such a genuinely kind soul and made the stress of doing schoolwork from afar so much lesser <3 There is also a weekly cooking and baking group and individualized exposure therapies which can be really helpful.On the more intricate side of things, The way that the program is run allows for patients to go back to their rooms during free times which resulted in some pretty invasive behaviors being used in many of the rooms post meals. There is also not a lot of access to the outside and so it s pretty common to go weeks without getting to go outside. The RCs are a lot younger than I anticipated (which says nothing about their abilities) but they did not always have knowledge specific to the treatment of eating disorders. Family therapy is not a large part of the treatment plan either, though there are family update sessions that happen weekly.About the program itself- There are 3-4 groups per day and 3 meals and 3 snacks daily. On the weekends therapeutic groups don t happen, but there are a few things to keep busy and the RCs try really hard to make it fun. Patients get 2 passes per week which are each 2 hours that can be used to see family, and you can receive letters and packages. Also note that they check any diaries that you bring and that lots of clothes that don't cover your arms or your legs will be confiscated.All in all the program is a really receptive and supportive one and it saved my life in so many ways. I can t say that treatment was easy, but it never is, and I am beyond grateful for all the people on my team and in my community who made my experience what it was.

I m lucky to have been a patient/client. The staff was kind, helpful, understanding, and non-judgmental. I felt safe and cared for at all times. I could not have imagined how meaningful this experience would be. It has truly changed my outlook on life. Thank you all so much!
