Sexual Addiction, Part Two: The Healing Process with Mark Huey
As we continue the conversation about sexual addiction, I asked my friend and therapist, Mark Huey some more questions about what is needed to experience healing and recovery from sexual brokenness. We dive into the purpose and role of therapists, support groups, and 12-Step groups. We will also explore how to use wisdom and boundaries to select who you ask to join your support team.
Mark helps us understand how God wired us for intimacy and how sexual addiction is a cry that we are unable to communicate our emotions or connect in authentic ways. There is hope for individuals and couples who carry this wound. Come listen to why Mark is so passionate about sharing tools and truths that reduce shame in this area of our brokenness.
