Equip New York is a fully virtual eating disorder treatment program that brings care into daily life rather than asking people to relocate. Each participant works with a dedicated five-member team that stays consistent throughout treatment, so there is no handoff to a new group as needs change. The program is designed for children, adolescents, and adults, with family involvement built into the model.

The clinical approach blends evidence-based therapy with practical support. Patients receive individual counseling, family therapy, and nutritional guidance, along with body image work. The team also offers mentorship and online aftercare, which helps people maintain gains after the main treatment period ends. Because services are virtual, families across New York City can participate from home.
