About this listen
In this episode of How’s My Drinking?, we explore the deep connection between trauma, PTSD, and addiction with Dr. Sophia Noori, psychiatrist and co-founder of NEMA Health—a virtual trauma treatment program. Dr. Noori shares her personal journey, the prevalence of trauma beyond combat-related PTSD, and how untreated trauma can often lead to substance use as a coping mechanism.
We dive into how proper trauma-focused therapy, especially when done virtually, can break the cycle of avoidance, improve treatment outcomes, and foster lasting recovery. Dr. Noori explains why treating the root cause (trauma) often helps reduce substance use and how NEMA Health’s innovative approach offers hope for those struggling.
Whether you or someone you know is dealing with trauma, PTSD, or addiction, this conversation sheds light on accessible, effective treatments and reminds us that recovery is possible.
