Equip Health

Equip Health is a pioneering virtual care platform dedicated entirely to delivering evidence-based eating disorder treatment. Founded in 2019 by Kristina Saffran and Dr. Erin Parks—who built the company on decades of clinical research and lived experience—Equip brings the gold standard of Family-Based Treatment (FBT) directly into patients' homes. Under the hood, Equip operates a robust telehealth infrastructure that provides every patient with a dedicated, five-person multidisciplinary care team, including a medical provider, therapist, dietitian, peer mentor, and family mentor. Their primary target audience includes adolescents, young adults, and families struggling with eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, ARFID, and BED who need comprehensive wrap-around support without the massive disruption of traditional inpatient hospitalization. What sets Equip apart in the HealthTech and mental health space is its 100% virtual, highly accessible model that actively integrates a patient’s immediate support network into the recovery process, leveraging real-time data and clinical outcomes to ensure lasting healing.
