The word “trauma” has its origins in Greek, and it means a wound. However, trauma runs far deeper than a wound. It is a reaction to a physical and/or emotional event that can be harrowing or even life-threatening.
While life is filled with ups and downs, and we all have bad experiences at some point or the other – a traumatic event leaves behind some specific symptoms, which manifest as follows:
Trauma can commonly manifest as acute stress disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, or what is commonly known as PTSD. However, complex trauma is slightly different. It typically occurs after repeated traumatic experiences and is often paired with another condition, such as:
Trauma can often underlie substance use behaviors – it is a coping mechanism to numb the pain and suffering, albeit a very dangerous one. Therefore, we offer dual diagnosis care to uncover and challenge the trauma patterns underlying substance use behaviors to foster healthy coping mechanisms and lifelong recovery.
But how do we do it?
Collaborate Care With a Multidisciplinary Team
Trauma or substance use does not exist in a vacuum. You need multidisciplinary support involving individual therapy, group therapy, medication management, and ongoing care. We offer a safe environment and a wide range of treatment options where you actively collaborate with our team to develop skills and strategies to manage your symptoms and build coping strategies along with maintaining your sobriety.
Develop Healthy Coping Mechanisms
When a person undergoes traumatic experiences, substance use becomes a way to cope with the pain and suffering. However, this coping mechanism only leads to a number of health complications and mental health struggles of its own. At Skyline, we incorporate therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in trauma-informed care to not only move toward healing but also build effective coping mechanisms.
With evidence-based therapies, you will learn to:
