For Carson trauma was a big underlying component of his alcohol problem!

Carson was suffering from a lot of the common consequences of alcoholism but he had the strength of will to seek help with treatment for addiction from a facility that had a holistic, and alternative approach to standard 12-step treatment programs.

Through Carson’s counseling Trauma-Related PTSD was also addressed with EMDR which is a non invasive therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) not used by most treatment programs.

The EMDR served as a real turning point for some of Carson’s deepest and most hope-restoring insights and also began a real enthusiasm for understanding the inside-out experience of life we all share at Gulf Breeze Recovery.
