Healing from Past Experiences
Our trauma-informed approach addresses the connection between past traumatic experiences and addiction, helping you heal from both for lasting recovery.
Trauma and addiction are deeply interconnected. Many people who struggle with substance use have experienced traumatic events—whether childhood abuse, neglect, accidents, violence, or other overwhelming experiences. Substances often become a way to cope with the pain, memories, and emotional dysregulation that trauma causes.
Trauma therapy addresses these underlying experiences in a safe, supportive environment. Our trauma-informed therapists understand that healing from trauma is essential for lasting recovery from addiction.
At Amity Palm Beach in West Palm Beach, Florida, we integrate trauma therapy into our comprehensive treatment approach, recognizing that true recovery often requires addressing both the addiction and the trauma that may have contributed to it.
We use multiple evidence-based approaches to help you process and heal from traumatic experiences.
Establish a sense of safety and stability before processing traumatic memories.
