Mental Health Providers
Help Clients Unlock Their Inner Strength
As a mental health provider, understanding ACEs is crucial because childhood adversity has a lasting impact on emotions, relationships, and mental health. People with high ACE scores are more likely to struggle with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and substance use.
Knowing about ACEs helps you recognize these patterns in your clients, provide trauma-informed care, and address the root causes of their challenges. By integrating this awareness into your practice, you can support healing, help clients build resilience, and improve their overall well-being.
