This workshop explores the complex relationship between addiction, trauma, and attachment, offering participants a deeper understanding of how these factors interact to shape behavioral health outcomes. We will examine the full spectrum of trauma—including Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), “Big T” traumatic events, and “little t” chronic or relational traumas—and discuss how each influences vulnerability to substance use and addictive behaviors. Participants will also learn how attachment patterns and early bonding experiences impact emotional regulation, coping strategies, and long‑term recovery trajectories. The session will highlight evidence‑based approaches for assessing and treating addiction across various levels of care, from outpatient support to intensive and residential treatment settings. Through an integrated trauma‑informed and attachment‑focused lens, this workshop equips professionals with practical strategies to better understand client needs, tailor treatment plans, and support sustainable recovery
