These clients are looking to go beyond talking and want to achieve an existence where they are no longer controlled by the problem.

Understanding the impact that trauma may play on our lives is critical in healing and growth. We are responsible for our own wellness and all behavior has meaning—treatment is figuring out what it is telling us. Development of a sense of personal responsibility and self-awareness plays a major role in treatment.
