BREAKING THE CHAINS
OF TRAUMA
Trauma related symptoms pose some of the greatest stumbling blocks to recovery for offenders, mental health clients, substance abusers, and individuals struggling with day-to-day responsibilities. These workbooks (67 pages) are based on the MRT approach and incorporate all of the key issues identified in SAMHSA’s Trauma-Informed Treatment Protocol. There are separate workbooks for male and female participants. The workbooks are only available to those programs with MRT trained staff, or staff who have completed specialized Trauma Training. There is also a journal that can be used as a supplement to the program.

Breaking the Chains of Trauma is designed to be conducted in an 8-session group that can be implemented in an open-ended manner, meaning that new participants can enter at any time, or as an 8-session psycho-educational class.

The workbooks are also available in Spanish. There is an extensive facilitator's guide, a journal, and several audio resources that should be utilized when conducting this program.
