What is Trauma-Informed Care in addiction recovery?

Trauma-informed care recognizes that past experiences can affect how a person experiences treatment. It can emphasize safety, trust, collaboration, choice, and avoiding unnecessary retraumatization.

Useful questions may include how consent is discussed, how choices are explained, how privacy is handled, and what may happen if an activity feels overwhelming. A talk can help you understand current practices without requiring you to make a treatment decision during the call.
