At Silvermist, we recognize the profound impact that trauma can have on individuals struggling with substance use disorders (SUDs). Research increasingly supports the connection between traumatic experiences and the development of addiction. It is estimated that over two-thirds of those seeking addiction treatment have experienced traumatic events in their lives. Our Pennsylvania-based team is trained to acknowledge these experiences and provide a supportive environment conducive to healing.
What is Trauma-Informed Care?
Trauma-informed care (TIC) is a therapeutic framework that involves understanding, recognizing and responding to the effects of all types of trauma. TIC emphasizes physical, psychological and emotional safety for both providers and survivors and helps rebuild a sense of control and empowerment for the client. It views substance abuse as a survival strategy for coping with pain rather than merely as a personal failure or moral issue. This perspective allows us to support our clients effectively as they learn to make positive life changes beyond their symptoms.

Silvermist’s approach to treating trauma involves comprehensive, evidence-based strategies tailored to address the unique needs of each client. Our therapists are skilled in a variety of trauma-specific interventions that help individuals navigate the complexities of their experiences while managing substance use. These therapies include:
