When you have experienced trauma in your childhood, it can lead to addiction problems later in life. That is generally because people who deal with unresolved trauma are looking for ways to feel better or to block out what they remember. That can lead them to self-medicating behaviors such as alcohol or drugs if you do not seek treatment at an alcohol addiction rehab center. They might also gamble too much, binge on food, or engage in risky sexual encounters.
No matter what type of childhood trauma and addiction issues you are facing, though, there are ways to get the help you need to break free of all of them. Crestview Recovery wants to help you do that today, with treatment options and trained professionals who are committed to your success. We offer a variety of addiction therapy services to help you overcome your trauma and live a healthier life without addiction.
Trauma and Addiction
Whether you have had treatment for childhood trauma and addiction in the past or you have never sought help before, reaching out can be difficult. It is hard to admit that there’s a problem in your life that needs treatment. It can also be very hard to talk about the trauma that happened in your childhood. Because of the way children process information, there can be a lot of conflicting feelings about the issues they experienced. But you do not have to focus on any of that. Instead, you can focus on the type of future you want to have, and work with us to make it happen through our substance use treatment programs. With treatment, you will be able to address the trauma and break the addiction, so you can have a brighter and happier life.
Finding Quality Treatment
Quality treatment at a drug and alcohol rehab center that works for your situation and meets your needs is an important part of healing from trauma. It is also very valuable when you’re trying to break an addiction to a substance or behavior. That is why we offer so many different treatment options at Crestview Recovery, so you can get the help that actually works for you, specifically. We want to tailor your experience in order to provide you with a real chance at a strong and lasting recovery you can feel good about. Some of the ways we can help you move past childhood trauma and addiction issues include:
- Partial hospitalization program (PHP)
- Intensive outpatient program (IOP)
- Outpatient drug rehab center
- Aftercare
- Extended care addiction treatment
- Trauma therapy
- Dual diagnosis treatment
- Individual therapy
As you work through your childhood trauma and addiction issues to have a better life, it is very important that you understand how valuable it is to be open about your experience. Holding things back can make it more difficult to fully process the things you have experienced, and that can mean it takes longer to reach recovery. Remaining there can also become more difficult. At Crestview Recovery, our trained professionals will be there for you at every step of the way and will help you achieve a long term recovery.
