Individualized, compassion-focused care for adolescents of all genders in an intensive outpatient setting.
Why Treatment? Why Alsana?
Eating disorders can disrupt all aspects of life including the family system. At Alsana, we aim to help heal the whole person and the whole family. Utilizing evidence-based treatment, our team works to help clients meet their own, specific goals for eating disorder recovery.
At our Westlake Village program, we offer compassionate, comprehensive treatment for all eating and body image diagnoses across all genders. We also know that clients may struggle with co-occurring issues like anxiety, depression, or OCD. These struggles impact many parts of a person’s life story and require a multi-faceted treatment approach. Through group, individual and family therapy and supervised meals and snacks, our team supports clients in learning skills that build resilience moving them towards true and lasting healing.
What is Eating Disorder Recovery at Alsana?
Eating disorders can affect everything: eating habits, relationships, movement, and even how a person sees themselves. At Alsana, treatment goes beyond symptom management. Clients work with a full team that understands how recovery looks different for everyone.
At Alsana in Westlake Village, we support adolescents of all genders dealing with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, OSFED, and mental health concerns that often go hand-in-hand. Each person receives care from a team that understands how complex recovery can be and how different it looks for everyone.
Eating disorders disrupt daily lives for anyone, but for adolescents, they can be particularly disruptive to healthy physical and mental development. Alsana treats the disorder and the underlying causes.

Early Treatment Supports Long-Term Recovery.
We serve adolescents from Westlake Village and surrounding communities, including Thousand Oaks, Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Malibu, Simi Valley, Moorpark, Camarillo, Oak Park, Newbury Park, and Lake Sherwood. Eating disorders rarely resolve on their own. The sooner someone receives effective care, the more likely they are to avoid long-term physical or emotional complications. This becomes even more important in adolescence, as their bodies are still growing.
Whether someone has lived with an eating disorder for years or is just beginning to recognize the signs, Alsana Westlake Village can help. Our team is experienced in treating complex symptoms and co-occurring conditions with warmth and clinical skill. Recovery may take time, but it can begin today.

Check out what these Alsana Alumni had to say about their care experiences.
-
I found authentic joy in things I used to reprimand myself for doing. I took, and continue to take pride in the progress I made and continue to make. Most importantly, I am now capable of self-acceptance and self-love whether I succeed, fail or anything in between.
-
Alsana providers led me through so much illuminating self-reflection about topics that I had never before considered relevant to my treatment, recovery, or self in general. Alsana staff appreciate and treat the individual, and I felt this in and outside of therapy sessions.
-
The staff at Alsana proved to be extremely talented in the art and the skill of not colluding with my eating disorder while also not treating me as if I was an eating disorder. They treated me like the real, whole person that I had lost sight of. They have an ability to hold nuance gently and they aren’t afraid to wade into the hardest waters, which is so much more helpful than receiving treatment that is guided by a rigid manual. There is an unbelievable amount of safety at Alsana because of this and my gratitude is crazy high!
