Trauma

Many women who come to the Rose House for treatment for addiction have experienced trauma. We think of trauma as anything less than nurturing. Traumas may include abuse, neglect, experiencing a tragic event, growing up in a dysfunctional family or experiencing grief and loss.

Individuals can be deeply injured by trauma, whether it was recent or far back in time. Trauma sometimes leads to addiction and active addiction often is interwoven with trauma.

We believe that women need help working on and through their traumatic experiences in order to emerge into emotional health and long term sobriety. We intensively treat trauma through providing:

• Advanced Emotion Regulation Skills
• Equine Therapy
• Inner Child Work
• Grief and Loss Work
• Relationship/Sex and Love Addiction treatment
• Creative Recovery
