Trauma and Addiction Treatment

Family integration is embedded in treatment plans to foster connection and shared healing.

Sessions address root trauma through structured exposure and reprocessing work, while group therapy incorporates Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, Seeking Safety and Mind Over Mood models. Patients work through emotion regulation, mindfulness and spirituality alongside medication management and activity therapy.
