Trauma & Addiction Training Certification Program in Arizona

The Mindfulness Academy of Trauma and Addiction training certification program is a highly researched and respected modality that teaches mental health professionals specific interventions in supporting their clients in achieving long term recovery from problematic sexual behaviors, compulsive pornography use, multiple addictions, betrayal trauma and complex trauma.

Are you a therapist, mental health or coaching professional and find yourself challenged in supporting your clients in the following areas?:

  • Creating effective relapse prevention interventions that actually work

  • Helping sexually compulsive clients maintain long term recovery vs. a roller coaster of slips

  • Teaching the addict specific mindfulness based tools to support nervous system regulation

  • Educating the addict and partner in understanding the importance of presence for holistic health

  • Helping the addict in recovery develop empathy for their wounded partners

  • Assisting betrayed partners or spouses in reducing trauma responses while validating their pain

  • Helping betrayed partners increase distress tolerance and lower reactivity

  • Supporting betrayed partners in understanding how to implement boundaries and consequences skillfully

  • Assisting the couple to effectively reconnect through mindful compassion with specific methods

  • Educating couples on a mindful practice of focused safety methods during the repair stage

While cognitive behavioral therapies provide a helpful roadmap at the start of the healing process, the CBT task model is simply not enough for long term healing, relapse prevention, and trauma recovery. The National Institute of Drug Abuse indicates that nearly 40-60% of people in addiction recovery experience relapse. After decades of CBT being the go to method, we now understand that the task methodology on its own is not enough to support long term recovery for those individuals who struggle with a variety of addictions, as well as the loved ones who have been deeply wounded and traumatized.
