WOMEN, TRAUMA AND RECOVERY: Getting Clean, Sober and Safe (Women Beat the Street)
A groundbreaking program on women and trauma! The co-mixture of PTSD and addiction as it pertains to (inner-city and other) women is the subject of this program. Beginning in childhood, many women have suffered one or more of sexual abuse and rape, physical beatings, severe emotional abuse, violent assault or witnessing extreme violence. Drug and alcohol abuse are often used as a numbing agent. Once the numbing is removed through treatment for substance abuse the feelings and PTSD effects come flooding back. If only the addiction is treated, and coping tools to deal with ‘feelings' are not learned, relapse often follows. The video offers tools and techniques to help in the recovery process.
