Trauma & Addiction: The Link We Can't Ignore (Clinician Edition)
What happens when clinicians ignore the link between trauma and addiction? It makes the process of recovery from substance use and addiction disorders more difficult for their clients. If traumatic experiences are not addressed, it contributes to greater substance use and it increases the risk of relapse. It also contributes to more hopelessness about the recovery process. #trauma #addiction #addictionrecovery #addictiontherapists #addictioncounseling
Remember that healing shame in complex PTSD most often requires working with a compassionate therapist; one who can help you navigate the pitfalls and help you find freedom from shame #pgclinical #traumaresponses
