The Renfrew Center is the country’s first residential eating disorder and women’s mental healthcare treatment facility with locations in Pennsylvania, Florida, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Maryland. Renfrew specializes in the treatment of Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder, trauma, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and other mental health issues.
The Renfrew Center has a comprehensive approach to mental health issues and experienced staff members who specialize in the psychology of women and men. The Center's treatment programs respect each client's individuality and encourage active participation in their own growth and recovery. Treatment is designed to be collaborative rather than imposed, interactive rather than passive and personal rather than distant or neutral. The Renfrew Center's innovative programs emphasize the value and healing potential of healthy interpersonal relationships.
After an assessment, treatment goals and plans are developed in collaboration with the client and her referring therapist if applicable. Their goal is to provide the appropriate level of treatment based on each client's situation and to facilitate timely transitions to less intensive levels of care. Most insurance policies accepted.

Treatment Model: People who decide to address their issues with food and body image have reached a point where an eating disorder seems to be controlling their life. As the obsession with food and body shape/weight takes up more mental and physical energy, they have difficulty managing other aspects of their life (school, work, relationships). I work with clients to restore balance in their lives. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to change thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are keeping them stuck in their eating disorder. Additionally, we use Psychodynamic principles to understand subconscious motivations that may be reinforcing their eating disorder symptoms.
Ms. Scarlata treats Anorexia and Bulimia; males and females, adolescents, and adults. She also works with Food Addiction, Binge Eating Disorder, Bariatric Surgery Assistance, Obesity, Compulsive Overeating, Night Eating Syndrome, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD).
