The Trauma Recovery and Empowerment Model (TREM), a community-based intervention, is designed to help participants develop and strengthen trauma healing skills, minimize mental health symptoms, and reduce or eliminate substance use.
One quasi-experimental study was located in which the full version of the TREM program was implemented in addition to treatment as usual with participants in mental health facilities. Significant differences were found at 12 months postbaseline (i.e., 4 months post-intervention) between TREM and treatment as usual participants in two of four main outcomes (i.e., differences were noted in alcohol problem severity and drug problem severity, but there were no differences noted in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder symptom severity or global symptom severity) and in three of eight secondary outcomes. In addition, groups were of unequal sizes, and there were significant differences between groups in several variables at baseline.
TREM is specifically designed for women who have experienced physical, sexual, or emotional abuse and is led by females. The program intends to promote self-esteem, boundary setting, and decision-making skills and decrease anxiety, depression, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder symptoms, and substance abuse. The program is delivered through manualized treatment to groups of 8 to 10 participants. The 3 main components of therapy include the following topics:
- Empowerment - Learn how to self-soothe and self-monitor; foster self-esteem; explore intimacy, trust, and female sexuality; and create safe emotional and physical borders;
- Trauma Education - Discuss sexual, physical, emotional, and institutional abuse; explore and reframe the connections between past abuse experiences and current difficulties; learn about trauma reactions and responses that specifically relate to women; and
- Skill building - Develop and strengthen problem-solving skills, communication styles, and decision-making strategies; manage out-of-control feelings; create safer relationships; and promote personal healing.
