About Trauma and Beyond

This trauma-specific outpatient center works with patients who have survived traumatic experiences and experience emotional distress. The clinicians at Trauma and Beyond believe that trauma is often at the root of many emotional and psychological disorders. The center provides patients with various treatments that have differing levels of intensity: intensive outpatient programs (IOP), partial hospitalization programs (PHP), outpatient treatment and supportive living at Athena House.
The clinicians at Trauma and Beyond use a 3-stage trauma therapy model in their work with all clients. Stage 1 involves working towards basic stabilization for patients with emotional dysregulation. The 2nd stage involves processing and grieving traumatic moments or memories that are causing distress. Finally, the 3rd stage involves learning to reconnect and integrate themselves back into life with greater ease. The team at the center also uses a top-down, bottom up approach, which targets the prefrontal cortex which controls thoughts and also focuses on the role of the body in healing trauma.
Their PHP program is for patients who suffer from debilitating PTSD, depression and anxiety. It is also a good option for patients who have survived trauma but are using substances to cope. Their IOP program is a good fit for patients who have worked through the PHP program or are needing a more intensive level of care than individual counseling. The clinicians at Trauma and Beyond provide individual counseling and group therapy for all clients. No matter the level of care received, clients can attend individual counseling daily. Supportive living at Athena House is available for clients in their PHP or IOP programs. Most of these programs are offered virtually.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Trauma and Beyond provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

Understanding Your Treatment Options

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Trauma and Beyond offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 9 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Trauma and Beyond works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
