We need to step into really deep therapy, trauma work, the things that you and I do, Lynn, to really get to the root of that, that proverbial emptiness right, that validation for occurrences...it shifted the entire way that I treat and practice with my clients.
What happens when love becomes an addiction? In this eye-opening episode of the Sobersoul Recovery Podcast, host Lynn Matti sits down with fellow psychotherapist and author Sherry Gaba to tackle the complex world of love addiction. Both therapists share their personal stories and professional insights on how unhealthy coping mechanisms develop, often starting in childhood when feelings of safety and validation are missing.
Sherry opens up about her own experiences with addictive relationships and how deep therapy helped her find a path to healing. The conversation doesn't just stop at personal anecdotes; it dives into the root causes of love addiction, highlighting childhood influences and the fear of letting go. Lynn and Sherry discuss the warning signs, like over-adapting to others' needs and neglecting your own.
They also offer practical advice for those struggling with love addiction, emphasizing the importance of self-love and acceptance. This episode is not just informative but also deeply empathetic, offering listeners actionable steps to start their journey toward inner peace. Whether you're grappling with love addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode provides valuable insights and encouragement.
