About Nova Luna Center for Eating Disorders

Nova Luna Center is the first health care facility of its kind for the treatment of eating disorders in the Hawaiian Islands. Our mission is to facilitate full recovery from disordered eating by empowering people to be their own guides and healers through a process of self-discovery. Our facility is nestled in the slopes of Haleakala, providing a peaceful place where clients can do their deepest work. Because of their complexity, eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, orthorexia, and exercise addiction require a comprehensive treatment plan involving a combination of psychosocial interventions, mental health support, and nutritional counseling, which we deliver within a day treatment model. We find the day treatment model to be effective because it allows for flexibility during long-term care, but is still comprehensive enough for the clients that require a higher level of supervision. As a day treatment center, our clients can begin their journey to recovery while still having a job, going to school, and living in the comfort of their own home. In our experience people who develop eating disorders are highly intuitive, sensitive, and strong individuals who have the capacity to fully recover. We hold the hope that each of our clients will emerge from their disordered eating with a sense of balance and inspiration. We invite our clients to develop their inherent wisdom and gifts, and encourage them to express themselves within our program. As a result, their story becomes part of the collective process of healing within our compassionate community. We call this The Nova Luna Process.
