Changing Minds: Stories Over Stigma
As a child, Kristen experienced significant trauma. When she reached her preteen years, Kristen didn't know how to manage what she was feeling and turned to alcohol, drugs, and self harm to mask the pain that she so desperately wanted to keep locked away. After going to treatment, where she learned how to replace her negative coping skills with positive ones, she worked hard to incorporate those habits into her life. Join Kristen and hear her story of resilience and recovery. ACS approved.
