Treating Trauma + PTSD
We have seen the power of healing first-hand, especially when it comes to overcoming traumatic experiences and PTSD. Recognizing that trauma often lies at the heart of addiction, our approach is to address these deep-rooted issues to pave the path towards lasting recovery from substance abuse and trauma.
Common Causes of Trauma
Trauma can stem from various life experiences, many of which may seem ordinary or are often dismissed. Understanding the diverse origins of trauma helps our clinicians provide personalized treatment. Common causes of trauma include:
- Abuse: This can be physical, sexual, or emotional in nature.
- Neglect: Often overlooked, emotional neglect can leave deep scars.
- Loss: The loss of a loved one can trigger significant emotional upheaval.
- Violence: Exposure to violence can lead to enduring traumatic stress.
- Accidents: Serious accidents can leave both physical and psychological trauma.
- Disasters: Natural or human-made disasters can cause profound trauma.
Specialized Trauma Therapies
Our team at The Pearl is trained in advanced trauma therapies, enabling them to guide women through the healing process with empathy and expertise. With an in-depth understanding of the complex ways trauma can manifest, we provide a supportive environment where women can safely confront and move beyond their traumatic experiences.
Our trauma-informed approach includes therapies such as:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps individuals identify and change unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to traumatic stress symptoms.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): EMDR is a specialized therapy that helps individuals process and make sense of traumatic memories.
- Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT): This form of CBT is specifically designed to address the unique challenges of trauma survivors.

We go to the root, unraveling the knots of trauma, and equipping each woman with the tools to navigate the sea of recovery, anchoring them in their newfound strength and resilience.
