Patient referrals

Expert multidisciplinary treatment incorporating step-up and step-down care across all types and stages of eating disorder presentations.

Esus is the first integrated eating disorder treatment centre in Australia

Our model incorporates a seamless transition of care across the service. We offer:

  • A daily Intensive Treatment Program (ITP) targeting nutritional restoration and compensatory behaviours, as the foundation for ongoing psychological therapy.
  • Low intensity group programs for skills development and targeting comorbid issues that act as treatment barriers.
  • Coordinated and collaborative individual and family out-patient treatment with psychiatrists, allied health clinicians as well as GP-lead medical monitoring and stabilisation.

Beyond our clinical care, Esus is committed to:

  • Building capacity in the eating disorder workforce across the community
  • Conducting quality improvement research leading to better treatment models and improved outcomes
  • Advocating for eating disorder-affected individuals and their families

The team

The team consists of professionals from multiple disciplines who have extensive experience in the treatment of eating disorders across the life-span.

This includes psychiatrists, psychologists, dietitians, GPs, nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, social workers and people with lived experience. Each member of the multidisciplinary team brings their unique expertise and perspective to the development of an individualised treatment plan that addresses the physical, psychological and nutritional aspects of an eating disorder.

Collaboration between all practitioners under one roof allows us to offer gold-standard treatment focussed on recovery.

Overcoming an eating disorder requires kindness and strength – a strategic empathy that disentangles the person from the illness.

Our Mission

Empowering people toward a full recovery from an eating disorder.

Our Vision

Delivering gold standard integrated care that aims for recovery through a collaborative approach
