To survive and escape a life of violence takes strength, opportunity and a desire to live free. All too frequently, women turn to alcohol or drugs to cope, creating a new and illusive enemy. As these women begin addiction recovery, they face complex personal and relational struggles. This workshop addresses how counselors can assist women in replacing the self-destructive coping mechanism of substance use and ineffective relationships with emotional release and regulation techniques, relational trauma tools, and improved family functioning to find true freedom. Trauma-based treatment protocols will be explored experientially.
