PTSD and substance abuse go hand in hand.
You are not alone.
The statistics of substance abuse issues among veterans is staggering. Practical Recovery offers non 12 step, trauma-informed addiction treatment. Whether you’re in need of outpatient or residential treatment, we treat YOU, the whole person, not just the symptoms or substance abuse. Our self-empowering approach can help you overcome not just the addiction, but any underlying trauma or mental health issues as well.
Benefits:
- Trauma-informed treatment – Don’t just address the substance abuse, treat the reasons for the substance abuse
- Dual-diagnosis treatment – Treat co-occurring disorders (depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc.) for greater chances of a successful recovery
