As a culture, we have to get better at de-stigmatizing this as an illness, an actual condition that is treatable, because it is treatable and people get better.
Imagine growing up with a parent who is a trailblazer in the field of sex addiction treatment. That was the reality for Dr. Stefanie Carnes, who joins host David Condos in this episode of 'Beyond Theory'. Dr. Carnes opens up about her unique upbringing as the daughter of Patrick Carnes, a pioneer in sex addiction therapy, and how it shaped her career path as a clinical sexologist and certified sex addiction therapist.
She passionately discusses the often misunderstood nature of sex addiction and the importance of recognizing it as a treatable condition. Dr. Carnes also shares insights into her work at The Willow House program, which focuses on helping women who struggle with intimacy issues, often overlooked in these conversations. Additionally, she touches on the sensitive process of disclosure and its impact on partners and children, providing a comprehensive look at the ripple effects of sex addiction.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in breaking down the stigmas surrounding mental health and addiction.
