TRAUMA-REPONSIVE INTERVENTION
Our program addresses the root causes of mental health struggles.
Instead of focusing solely on diagnosing symptoms, Chosen employs a trauma-responsive approach to prioritize the experiences people have been through and healing the root of those symptoms, much like treating a wound before it becomes infected.
Our focus is on nurturing emotional well-being, leaving scars of resilience rather than unresolved trauma. This strengthens attachments and connections between children and parents and caregivers, reduces stress, mitigates trauma-related behaviors, and prevents hospitalizations and acute mental health crises.
