Treatment is based on empowering the client to be honest and open about past and current issues. Building the client up while alleviating the problems. Treatment is highly trauma focused since trauma is the root of many issues and until you address the trauma, the issues floating to the surface may never stop. So we must get to the root of the issues while increasing self-esteem!
