So one of the things I've noticed about this disease is that young men often get arrested and young women do not, but they experience quite a bit of trauma.
When it comes to addiction treatment, one size certainly doesn't fit all. In this episode of 'My Child & Addiction', Erin Goodhart from Caron Treatment Centers answers burning questions from parents about the unique challenges and treatment options available for women and girls. Erin dives into how trauma-informed care has become a cornerstone in treating addiction, shedding light on how understanding trauma can reshape the path to recovery.
She also discusses the integration of mental health and substance use treatment, a blend that has shown promising results in recent years. The episode goes beyond just treatment options, highlighting the critical role of language in therapy, especially for women who often face stigma and shame. Erin emphasizes how a supportive network, primarily of women, can be a game-changer in maintaining sobriety. The conversation also touches on the benefits of Al-Anon for families, providing a holistic view of recovery.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the nuances of addiction treatment for women and girls and how tailored approaches are making a difference.
