What Our Clients Say

Voices from Our Community

"Aster Springs was a great experience for me. They met me where I was at coming in, which was low. By showing up each day, my eating disorder and depression symptoms started to decline. They held hope for me when I couldn’t hold it for myself. Now, my hope has been restored and I am much stronger mentally and physically."

Let’s be honest about eating disorders.

Alycia Aldieri, Head of Admissions for Aster Springs, has firsthand experience with eating disorder recovery, as well as years of experience working directly with individuals struggling with eating disorders. In this video series, Aldieri explores some of the most common and powerful barriers to seeking treatment.

Explore the Barriers

Let’s be honest about financial concerns.

The cost of treatment can feel overwhelming — but your recovery is priceless.

Let’s be honest about being close to home.

Being close to home feels comfortable — but is it what’s best for recovery? Eating disorders thrive on routine and familiarity, making the idea of traveling for treatment feel overwhelming. But staying close to home can also make it easier to leave treatment when things get tough.

Let’s be honest about denial.

Denial keeps eating disorders alive. Eating disorders thrive in secrecy and denial. If you don’t believe you’re sick, why would you seek help? That’s precisely how eating disorders stay in control.

Let’s be honest about denial in parents.

Denial is a natural response — but delaying the proper care can prolong suffering. For many parents, accepting that their child needs eating disorder treatment is an overwhelming and emotional experience. But early, appropriate intervention is key to lasting recovery.

Let’s be honest about isolation.

Eating disorders thrive in isolation, convincing you that you’re better off alone. But the truth is, isolation only makes things worse. It shrinks your world and traps you in a cycle of self-doubt and despair.

Let’s be honest about change.

Change is hard, but so is staying stuck. Living with an eating disorder can feel like the only way to survive. Even when it causes chaos, it becomes familiar — making change feel overwhelming.

Let’s be honest about guilt + shame in parents.

As a parent, it’s heart-wrenching to make the decision to send your child to treatment, especially when that child doesn’t want to go.

Let’s be honest about guilt + shame.

Guilt and shame can trap you in the cycle of an eating disorder, making it challenging to seek the treatment you need.

Let’s be honest about fear in parents.

Deciding to seek treatment for your child is scary — but doing nothing is scarier.

Let’s be honest about fear.

You are stronger than your fears. Treatment is hard, but so is staying stuck in the cycle of an eating disorder. You can do hard things. And on the other side of fear? A life worth living.
