Perhaps you've heard it said that "we are all recovering from something". This declaration is often attributed to Dr. Dawn Nickel, co-founder of SHE RECOVERS. "Although 70-80% of SHE RECOVERS followers are in recovery from substance use disorders, those disorders are just coping mechanisms used to numb oneself from the pain we are really recovering, i.e. Trauma. Abandonment. Shame. Low Self-esteem. Fear. Insecurity. Regret. Grief," explains Nickel.
