Living with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder often means navigating a complex landscape of triggers, flashbacks, and overwhelming emotions. Many survivors describe it as feeling constantly on edge—as if danger lurks around every corner.

The good news? These neurological patterns can be rewired. Through evidence-based treatments like EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy, survivors learn to process traumatic memories in ways that reduce their emotional charge. With proper treatment, approximately 70% of people experience significant symptom reduction, allowing them to reclaim their lives and sense of safety in the world.

Research shows that people who recover from people-pleasing tendencies report improvements in multiple areas of wellbeing, including reduced anxiety, better boundaries, and more authentic relationships. IFS therapy provides a roadmap for this journey, helping you honor your protective parts while developing new ways of relating to yourself and others.

Excerpt:

Harm reduction is a compassionate, evidence-based approach to substance use that prioritizes safety, dignity, and public health. Instead of focusing solely on abstinence, it offers practical tools like syringe exchange programs, naloxone distribution, and education to reduce risks and save lives. By meeting people where they are and addressing the root causes of substance use, harm reduction creates pathways to healing and fosters a culture of empathy and support. Dive into our latest blog to learn how harm reduction is reshaping the way we approach substance use and recovery.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) offers a unique way to address the deep-seated trauma often linked to eating disorders. This therapy goes beyond surface behaviors, targeting the emotional pain and negative beliefs that fuel disordered eating patterns. Learn how EMDR can transform the path to recovery.
