Below describes part of this episode...part 2 will be next week!  Thank you, caller, for sharing your story with us and the world...our stories empower each other! Let's face it.  Therapeutic re-traumatization is rampant in the world of partners of po-n and sex addiction.  It happens when our feelings are invalidated by uneducated and inexperienced professionals, when we are called co-addicts or co-dependant, when we are told to "stay in our own lane", and more.  We will give you partners information to use in order to select the RIGHT help for you and protect yourself from this huge phenomenon! We touch on a few of the different models of addiction recovery currently available for the afflicted and break it down with a touch of reality...statistics.  Some of the most popular treatment models are incredibly ineffective and we tell you why!   Don't miss this one - this is armour for YOU and your husband or boyfriend.  Take action to protect both of you and give you both the best chance of success, whether you stay together or not.  Raw, real, passionate and highly informed.  Our mission here is to protect YOU.
