About
Imani is a rehabilitation facility situated in Wynberg, Cape Town, specializing in the treatment of eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, orthorexia, and others. The center provides both residential and outpatient services. In their inpatient program, clients follow a structured daily schedule for meals and snacks, receiving guidance and support from counselors or recovery assistants. Participants engage in individual and group therapy sessions, as well as various holistic treatments and physical activities. The program incorporates dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), art therapy, yoga, 12-Step programs, and support groups focused on eating disorders. Imani emphasizes the importance of family involvement, facilitating engagement through visitations, therapeutic meals, and family therapy sessions. Prior to completing the program, all patients receive thorough relapse prevention counseling.
The approach of this center to eating disorder treatment is comprehensive and holistic. Imani takes into account the psychological, physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional aspects of individuals, incorporating a range of holistic therapies during their recovery journey, including:
Biodanza - a dance therapy practice that utilizes music and movement to promote self-expression and self-regulation. Tension and Trauma Release Exercises - a series of movements designed to help restore balance within the body. Schema Therapy - a conversational therapy that helps individuals recognize and modify negative or dysfunctional thought patterns.
Furthermore, Imani offers reintegration support aimed at assisting patients in maintaining their healing as they transition back to everyday life. The staff collaborates with individuals to create relapse prevention strategies and provides ongoing outpatient counseling, support groups, and aftercare follow-ups.
