Addiction…
how we cope

Addiction Counseling in California and Wisconsin

Chronic relational trauma is overwhelming and often unbearable. In order to cope, we move further away from the pain as a means to escape. Sometimes, our attempts to escape lead to unmanageable habits and loss of control. Substance abuse and addictions are unsuccessful attempts at healing pain.

Most people who start Addiction Counseling feel trapped in a life they don’t love. Perhaps you can relate. Maybe your days start to blur together or you know you’d be happier if you made changes but it feels safer and more comfortable to stay the same.

Stuck in negativity and feeling out of control, you may feel like life is overwhelming, like it’s too much.

​Life comes with a lot of constant worries and concerns. Most people who start Therapy for Relational Trauma feel stuck repeating the same painful patterns. Perhaps you can relate. Maybe you’re noticing that you complain a lot about feeling stressed, tired, and unfulfilled or you feel like you’re missing something, but can’t figure out what it is. Stuck in negativity and feeling disconnected, you may feel like life isolating and disconnected.
