TraumAddiction: Treating Addicted Survivors of Trauma
Not everyone who is traumatized becomes addicted but everyone who is addicted has been traumatized – Gabor Maté
This course first explores the intersection of trauma and addiction through a bio-psycho-social approach that, for the 21st Century would be more accurately called neuro-traumatic-polyvagal approach. This course helps clinicians, addiction professionals and recovering addicts understand how trauma is at the center of the disease of addiction and must be addressed for addicts to enjoy lasting recovery and quality of life. The second half of the course introduces a four-stage treatment structure to treat trauma and addiction simultaneously ins a safe and effective method using evidence-based principles and practices.
