Provided by Northern Health

The clinic, located in Prince George, provides services for Northern children, youth, and adults living with eating disorders, and their families. It offers in-person outpatient care for people in Prince George and the surrounding area (and for people who prefer to travel to Prince George), and virtual services (phone or video chat) for people anywhere in the North.

Services:
  • Medical and/or nursing assessments
  • Individual and/or group counselling, including nutrition support (dietetic care)
  • Referrals to community support programs
  • Referrals to more specialized programs, such as those at St. Paul’s Hospital /Discovery Vista House or BC Children’s Hospital / Looking Glass Residence. This includes helping clients and teams determine the best fit for care options. To be able to take part in a more specialized program, you need to be connected to a family doctor or nurse practitioner in Northern Health, and you need to be working with our clinic.

    Our team includes a manager, a team lead, an administrative assistant, youth and adult therapists, dietitians, nurses, an occupational therapist, family physicians, life skills workers, and a psychiatrist.

    You need a referral from your family doctor or nurse practitioner, or from your specialist. They will need to continue to follow you and provide services as needed related to your care. When they refer you, your doctor or nurse practitioner will make sure you get some specific lab tests and a test of your heart function (electrocardiogram – ECG).
