Men's Trauma & PTSD Treatment: Healing the Root Cause with EMDR
Most men don't realize they are suffering from trauma. In men, unresolved pain rarely looks like sadness or asking for help—it looks like anger, isolation, chronic stress, and self-medication. Whether it stems from childhood, a career-ending event, or a profound personal loss, men are culturally conditioned to "man up" and bury it.
But eventually, the buried pain surfaces as a crippling alcohol dependency, a secret gambling addiction, or destructive intimacy disorders. At Prescott House, we don’t just put a band-aid on the addiction; we heal the root cause.
If you or your loved one needs real change — we’re here to help.

Is Unresolved Trauma Destroying Your Family? You can see the pain he is carrying, but his refusal to deal with it is tearing your relationship apart. You cannot fix his trauma for him, but you can guide him to the right help. Call our admissions team today for a confidential consultation on how our trauma-informed care and EMDR therapies help high-functioning men get their lives back.
The Connection Between Men's Trauma and Addiction
Standard 30-day rehabs often fail because they only treat the surface behavior. If a man stops drinking or gambling but still lives in a constant state of "fight-or-flight" from underlying PTSD, relapse is almost inevitable.
High-functioning men often use success, money, or adrenaline to outrun their past. When those stop working, they turn to substances or process addictions to numb the nervous system. True recovery requires Dual Diagnosis treatment—addressing the addiction and the trauma simultaneously in a safe, structured environment.
Healing the Brain with EMDR Therapy
Talk therapy alone is rarely enough to heal deep-seated trauma. That is why Prescott House utilizes EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), the global gold standard for trauma and PTSD treatment.
Instead of just talking about painful memories, EMDR helps the brain safely reprocess them. Led by highly trained trauma specialists like David Glasser, our EMDR program allows men to process traumatic events so they no longer trigger the overwhelming urge to drink, gamble, or act out. We help you rewire your brain’s response to stress, allowing you to finally put the past to rest.
The Prescott House Brotherhood: Led by Men Who Have Walked in Your Shoes
Healing from trauma requires intense vulnerability. In a traditional, co-ed hospital setting, men instinctively keep their armor on. They perform. They tell therapists what they think they want to hear.
At Prescott House, you are entering a true brotherhood of recovery. The vast majority of our male staff are proud alumni of the Prescott House program. We have sat in the exact same chairs, faced the exact same fears, and rebuilt our lives. In our men-only groups, the masks come off, the pride drops, and the real healing begins. You will be surrounded by peers and professionals who don't just understand the textbook definition of trauma—they understand you.
How Our Trauma Program Works (Step-by-Step)
We provide a structured, long-term approach (90-180+ days) to ensure true stabilization and healing.
- Phase 1: Clinical Immersion & Safety: We remove the chaos of daily life and digital triggers. Clients focus on stabilizing their nervous systems, building trust with their clinical team, and establishing healthy daily routines.
- Phase 2: Core Trauma Work: This is where the heavy lifting happens. Through EMDR, individual therapy, and peer group sessions, men safely confront their past, process shame, and develop new, healthy coping mechanisms.
- Phase 3: Integration & Rebuilding: As stability grows, we focus on the future. We facilitate guided family therapy to repair betrayal trauma, rebuild communication, and prepare the client for a successful, sober transition back into their career and family life.
