About 75% of people entering addiction treatment have a trauma history — and over 30% carry a PTSD diagnosis. Addiction treatment that ignores trauma leaves the most powerful driver of substance use completely unaddressed. Compass Recovery's trauma-informed program near Fountain Valley integrates evidence-based trauma therapy with addiction care from day one, treating both simultaneously.

Research shows that roughly 75% of people entering addiction treatment carry a trauma history. Without addressing trauma directly, treatment often misses the most powerful driver keeping people trapped in substance use. Fountain Valley's significant veteran and military population faces elevated trauma exposure through service, and these residents deserve care that recognizes how trauma and addiction intertwine. Standard addiction treatment alone frequently falls short for this community.
Compass Recovery's trauma-informed program in nearby Cypress integrates evidence-based trauma therapies including EMDR, DBT, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Seeking Safety, TREM, and ATRIUM throughout every level of treatment, not as an afterthought. Rather than compartmentalizing trauma work into a separate track, we weave the six core principles of trauma-informed care into detox, residential programming, outpatient services, and peer support. For Fountain Valley residents, this means trauma healing and addiction recovery happen together from day one.
Established by the National Center for Trauma-Informed Care. At Compass, these are embedded in every interaction — not applied selectively.
Compass Recovery integrates multiple evidence-based trauma therapy models alongside EMDR, DBT, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy. The right combination is determined by each client's history, presentation, and clinical needs.
Trauma research over the past three decades has produced a range of evidence-based treatment models specifically designed for the intersection of trauma and substance use. These models go beyond managing symptoms — they address the neurological, relational, and behavioral patterns that trauma creates and that substance use temporarily suppresses.
At Compass Recovery, trauma therapy is integrated with addiction treatment from day one — not deferred until sobriety is established or offered as an optional add-on. The clinical team determines which combination of models best fits each client's specific trauma history, gender, cultural background, and substance use pattern.
Alongside structured models, Compass Recovery's clinical team uses EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and DBT — all of which have strong evidence bases for trauma processing and are particularly effective for clients with PTSD alongside addiction.
Helps both men and women develop coping skills to overcome trauma and substance use simultaneously — focusing on behavioral and cognitive strategies to manage life challenges and prevent relapse.
Group-based treatment for women with histories of physical or sexual abuse. Builds positive coping skills and social support while addressing the consequences of violent victimization and substance use.
Treats trauma's impact on body, mind, and spirit simultaneously — using relational treatment and trauma-focused practices in both peer and individual settings.
A gender-responsive, trauma-informed model covering self, spirituality, relationships, and sexuality — four domains essential to growth and healing for women in recovery.
Uses ACEs findings to identify strengths, screen for trauma, and provide trauma-informed interventions — taking a holistic view of personal and family history to address mental health and substance use together.
Fountain Valley's strong military presence means many residents carry service-related trauma alongside addiction challenges. Compass Recovery's trauma-informed approach in nearby Cypress recognizes this reality without judgment. We've designed our treatment to address both the wounds of service and substance use together, honoring the specific resilience military families bring to recovery. When you're healing from trauma and addiction, you need clinicians who understand the connection and treat you with the directness and respect you deserve.
Treating addiction while deferring trauma work leaves the most powerful relapse driver untouched. At Compass, trauma-informed therapy begins on the same day as addiction treatment — not after sobriety is established.
Three of the most evidence-supported trauma therapies delivered by licensed clinicians — EMDR for trauma processing, DBT for emotional regulation, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy for rapid symptom reduction.
Trained clinicians actively manage re-traumatization risk throughout treatment — creating the consistent safety that allows clients to explore trauma history without being destabilized by the process itself.
TREM, HWC, and other gender-responsive models are available for clients whose trauma history intersects with gender-based violence, sexual abuse, or experiences requiring a culturally attuned clinical approach.
Our signature program builds a future-oriented identity — because healing from trauma is not only about resolving the past but about constructing a life that makes the present worth protecting.
