About 90% of those affected by bulimia are women. Bulimia is characterized by episodes of binge-eating followed by inappropriate methods of weight control (purging). Individuals will control weight gain by vomiting, fasting, enemas, excessive use of laxatives and diuretics, or compulsive exercising. This cycle is repeated over and over again. About 10% of individuals suffering from bulimia will die from either starvation, cardiac arrest, other medical complications,
or suicide. Many more suffer with the symptoms for years. Go to our Information section to see if you have any other eating disorder symptoms to determine if you need bulimia treatment.
 We at The Center for Counseling & Health Resources, Inc. believe there is hope for those who suffer with an eating disorder. For twenty years, The Center has provided those with eating disorders "a place of hope." Our founder, Dr. Gregory L. Jantz, believes that treating the whole-person results in long-term recovery. At The Center, our emphasis is on Emotional Balance, Intellectual Discovery, Relational Healing, Physical/Nutritional Wellness,
and Spiritual Renewal.
Please get help for yourself or encourage a friend to get some kind of help if you have an eating disorder. For those with serious symptoms we have developed a Specialized Intensive Bulimia Treatment Program.
 Our team approach to treating anorexia, bulimia, compulsive eating, and binge eating disorder includes individual and group counseling, as well as nutritional education, medical care by our staff
physician (or for those who are currently working with a physician, we will gladly work in conjunction with them) and physical care based on each client's individual needs. Read Testimonials from our great number of clients. Do not believe a lie, it is never too late to get help for an eating disorder.
We want you to know that there is Hope! Go to our main site, The Center for Counseling & Health Resources, Inc. and learn about various options to get help. We provide counseling, books, audiocassettes, and nutritional supplements. Because many who have an eating disorder experience depression, we have a unique website on depression. It is called Hope for Depression. Be sure and check it out.
