Seeking Safety Psychoeducation Group
Seeking Safety is an evidence based program that was designed for people with a history of trauma and/or addiction.
-
Trauma may mean a distressing event such as a child abuse, major accident, combat, domestic violence, natural disaster, etc.
-
Addiction may mean a destructive use of alcohol, drugs, gambling, food, shopping, etc.
This group focuses on coping skills to help you become more safe in your relationships, thinking, and actions.
