Trauma-Informed Care (TIC)
Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) is an approach to treatment that recognizes the widespread impact of trauma on individuals and focuses on creating a safe, supportive, and empowering environment for recovery. It is particularly relevant in addiction treatment, as many individuals with substance use disorders have experienced significant trauma. TIC integrates knowledge about trauma into all aspects of care and treatment, ensuring that the person feels understood, respected, and supported throughout the recovery process.
