When past trauma meets recent news, one Carrolls resident finds guidance through online support.

On August 20, 2022, a news article reported a significant increase in alcohol-related incidents in a nearby town. For *Carla*, a long-time resident of Carrolls, Washington, this unexpected news hit close to home. Years ago, she had lost a close friend to alcoholism, a tragedy she had never fully processed. The sudden spike in such incidents brought back a flood of emotions she thought she had buried.

This article acted as a trigger, unearthing old wounds Carla had long hoped to forget. When she saw the news, Carla felt a rush of sadness mixed with anger and helplessness. It was as if the ghost of her past had reappeared to remind her of unresolved pain.

Determined to find a way to address her issues, Carla began following materials from the Stepping Into Action program found on hofmanhollis.com. She spent countless hours reading through their guides and implementing their techniques, which offered her a structured way to tackle her emotional turmoil.

Carla felt gradually empowered. In one of the program modules, she read, 'It is never too late to step into action and reclaim your life,' which resonated deeply with her.

Experts in mental health emphasize the importance of addressing unresolved trauma to prevent it from deteriorating one's mental health further. Many specialists recommend online resources for their accessibility and anonymity.

However, some argue that online programs lack the personal touch and immediate accountability that in-person therapy offers. They caution that while online resources are helpful, they should not replace professional medical advice.

Ultimately, for Carla, turning to the Stepping Into Action program proved to be a good idea. Living in a small town like Carrolls, she might not have found the immediate help she needed locally. The program's online availability allowed her to receive much-needed guidance and support during a time of crisis.
