Research has linked traumatic experiences with an increased likelihood of developing substance use disorders. That’s why more addiction treatment centers and programs, including AAC, are offering trauma-informed care. “Trauma-informed care is more than trauma treatment,” Frances Myers-Routt, clinical director at River Oaks Treatment Center, an American Addictions Centers facility, told BHB. “Trauma informed care is an entire approach.” Read more in Behavior Business Health about how AAC’s River Oaks Treatment Center is helping those with primary substance use and secondary mental health and medical issues through a trauma-informed approach. https://bit.ly/3UFSPi3

Vicarious trauma, also known as compassion fatigue, refers to the negative impact on one's mental health due to indirect exposure to another individual's trauma, similar to experiencing the trauma directly. Learn about trauma definitions, traumatic stress reactions, trauma-infused models, and implementation approaches in ICJIA's research article "Trauma Types and Promising Approaches to Assist Survivors." https://lnkd.in/gtD84Nu8 #Trauma #MentalHealth

Adverse childhood experience, or “ACEs,” are potentially traumatic events that occur during childhood (from 0 to 17 years old). These experiences can have long-lasting impacts on health, well-being, and life opportunities. Although ACEs are common (1 in 6 adults have reported four or more types), there are ways you can help balance out their effects. Check out the image below to learn how you can support the children in your life. #allinswva #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #mentalhealth

The 4 Benefits of Becoming a Mental Health Technician

NEW EPISODE of Thoughts & Rants of a Behavior Scientist When we exceedingly follow rules, we sacrifice empiricism. We become less likely to recognize when an intervention is not working. This, of course, preempts analysis. There is no impetus for problem-solving if a problem is not identified. We can’t begin to analyze why an intervention is not working if we don’t realize that it is not working. In the episode, Steve Ward , Kayla Perry, M.S., BCBA, LBA, and Dr. Merrill Winston take a deep dive into the concepts of assent, trauma-informed care, and compassion; moreover, they illuminate current challenges within the field of behavior analysis as they relate to the exceedingly broad use of terms like these that lack nuance and seemingly promote rule-governance. Unfortunately, this can sometimes lead to well intended behavior analysts inadvertently harming some of the very people they are trying to help. #aba #traumainformedcare #compassion

Did you know about the intensive outpatient program (IOP) and its remarkable benefits for individuals seeking a flexible yet structured approach to recovery? An IOP is a treatment option for mental health issues, substance abuse, and addiction, providing individuals with the support they need while allowing them to live at home and continue with their daily lives. Here are some incredible benefits: Flexibility to maintain daily life – IOP allows individuals to receive treatment without putting their personal and professional lives on hold. - Access to intensive support – Participants have access to multiple therapy sessions each week, offering the intensive support needed for recovery without full-time hospitalization. - Community and peer support – The group therapy component fosters a sense of community, providing individuals with peer support and reducing feelings of isolation. - Skills development – IOPs focus on developing coping mechanisms, life skills, and strategies to manage triggers, crucial for long-term recovery. - Cost-effective – Compared to inpatient programs, IOPs are more affordable while still offering high-quality and comprehensive care. If you or someone you know could benefit from an intensive outpatient program, exploring this option could be a game-changer in the recovery journey.
