Module 1 “Laying the Foundation”

3 weeks | ages 16+ | medical and psychiatric stability required

Healing does not happen in isolation. Using the power of group work and being in community, BridgePoint's Module 1 program is focused on participants exploring their relationship with themselves. Participants have the opportunity to practice using curiosity, the additive approach and the 1% while unpacking their thoughts, emotions and behaviours regarding topics such as values, family of origin dynamics, vulnerability, the change process, development of effective communication skills and boundaries, self-compassion and the polyvagal theory.

With the support of your home team, along with medical and psychiatric stability, you are able to self-refer or be referred to a module.

Module 2 “Building The Bridges” - ages 16+

2 weeks | ages 16+ | medical and psychiatric stability required

The focus of Module II is on the development of the self in relationships.

BridgePoint’s Module 2 program invites participants to explore the “bridges” that are built in relationships with others. We are all hardwired for connection, and yet disordered eating thrives in secrecy and isolation, leading to a crisis of disconnection (from themselves & others) for many participants. This program continues to incorporate a variety of modalities for participants to gain greater knowledge and skills, including yoga and mindfulness, creative expressions as well as deep dives into themes of communication, boundaries, people pleasing, attachment, the relationship cycle, trust, forgiveness & nutrition.

Body Trust

1 week | ages 16+ | medical and psychiatric stability required

A 7-day Body Trust group based on the Body Trust Story and Workshop would guide participants through an immersive journey toward reconnecting with their bodies in compassionate, non-judgmental ways. Through daily group discussions, experiential activities, and individual reflection, participants explore a framework that promotes healing, fosters empowerment and encourages lasting change.

Grounded in principles of self-acceptance, resilience, and liberation from diet culture, the program would cover core Body Trust concepts, including:

the impact of cultural body ideals
mindful self-awareness
re-establishing your relationship with food and movement practices.

Testimonials

I trust everyone and the confidentiality and the trust here. It's difficult at times, very emotional and it's hard dealing with a lot of feelings but it's what you have to do and it feels so better much and so supportive.

There's no comparison to anything else I've tried and it’s a real blessing and an opportunity to be able to come here and an opportunity not to be taken lightly. It's a privilege to be here and I know that I will leave here a different person.

I can identify the issues and accept them and be able to learn how to work with that. I think over time we can say goodbye to the eating disorder. There is freedom at the end of the tunnel, but it takes work.

It's not about being broken and getting fixed, it's that we are all individuals who have pain and we're learning how to cope in a very healthy way.

The fact that BridgePoint operates so differently than the traditional medical model was very refreshing, and proved to be vital to my experience and healing.
