They have served the DMV area for over 10 years as one of the first hospitals on the east coast to provide comprehensive treatment at the inpatient, partial hospitalization (day program), and outpatient levels of care for eating disorders for children, adolescents, adults of all genders, and their families. The Reflections Medical and Program Directors are both Certified Eating Disorders Specialists who have dedicated their lives to the prevention, treatment, and recovery of those with eating disorders.
The event is free to attend, however, we encourage attendees to consider purchasing a book donation ticket for Reflections during registration.
