Program for Addiction Recovery and Trauma Resolution

(Designed for addicted persons and family members)
 
  neenah  
  PHASE I:  Initial Evaluation and Assessment (usually four individual sessions)

PHASE II:  Group Therapy: Creating Life Balance
(meets every other week with individual sessions opposite weeks to evaluate the last group
and establish goals for the next week's group)

PHASE III:  Trauma or difficult memory resolution using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensization
and Reprocessing), Art Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Metaphor. EMDR and other
treatment approaches helps to facilitate reprocessing of negative beliefs about the self into positive
beliefs about the self. This in turn benefits a sober lifestyle from the addictive behaviors and
compulsivity issues.

PHASE IV:  Day Intensive: Saturday 9 AM to 4:30 PM
The Day Intensives are designed to continue the work that has begun on the Weekend Intensives
with the same goals as the Weekend Intensives.

Program Length:  When there is a combination of addiction and trauma the average treatment
length is two to five years. Clients will cycle through the various program phases until they have,
according to the client's own reporting, reached 80% resolution of trauma and are satisfied with
their sobriety.

We ask for a one year commitment of treatment from the start to emphasize the
level of dedication that it takes to recover from trauma related addictive disorders.

What is sex addiction?

No one single behavior defines sex addiction. When compulsivity has taken control of the addicts
life and it has become unmanageable the behaviors include; excessive masturbation, compulsive
heterosexual and/or homosexual relationships, prostitution, sexting, indecent phone calls,
exhibitionism, rape, voyeurism, incest, and/or violence. It is important to know that sex addiction
does not always lead to sexual offense. Sexual addiction is often accompanied by other addictions
and past trauma. This afflicts people from childhood to late adulthood.

This is an issue for men and women and an estimated 3 – 5% of Americans are afflicted with
sexual addiction.

What is food addiction?

Eating disorders include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating. They arise from a
variety of physical, emotional, beliefs, and social issues all of which need to be addressed for full
recovery. These disorders can also begin from a diet or sports activity that has become compulsive.
Often times, restricting, binge-purge behaviors, and over eating are accompanied by other addictions
or compulsive behaviors. Again, trauma can be an underlying issue that encourages the cycling of
addiction. Although Eating Disorders are serious and sometimes life threatening, there is HOPE
and RECOVERY.

It is estimated that over 8 million Americans have eating disorders, 7 million are women and
1 million are men.
