Esperanza Eating Disorders Center
Susan C. Mengden, PhD, CEDS-s is proud to announce the opening of
Esperanza Eating Disorders Center in San Antonio, Texas. Esperanza is a Partial Hospitalization, Intensive Outpatient and Outpatient Center providing treatment for adolescents (13-17) and adults in San Antonio and South Texas.
Susan C. Mengden, PhD, CEDS-s
Known nationally and internationally for her expertise, Dr Mengden
is a licensed psychologist who received her PhD from Boston
College. Her passion for providing hope and recovery to eating
disordered patients and their loved ones has led her to positions at all
levels of care for the past 31 years.
Our Team
Belief in the power of teamwork has resulted in a carefully selected
multidisciplinary team of mental health professionals, dietitians,
physicians, registered nurses and integrative therapists committed to
working with patients, their loved ones and professionals in the
community to empower lasting recovery.
Recovery By Doing
One of Esperanza’s cornerstone philosophies is Recovery by Doing.
Patients don’t just hear about what to do, but they get hands on
experience in “doing” recovery. Learning to grocery shop, hands on
cooking, learning to plate a meal and integrative therapies including
meditation, mindful movement and journaling are all part of Recovery
by Doing.
Levels of Care
Partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and outpatient programs
allow family and loved ones to participate in the healing process every
step of the way. Specialized programs are designed for Adults and
Adolescents (ages 13-17), are gender inclusive and provide treatment
for all types of eating disorders, including Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge
Eating Disorder, ARFID (Avoidant/ Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) and
other types of disordered eating. Adolescent and Adult programs run
concurrently, but are completely separate.
