Recorded on October 16, 2021
Guest Speaker: David Ley
Everyone has their opinions, and this can be especially true when it comes to controversial topics such as pornography and addiction. Moving beyond our moral beliefs to what research shows can be challenging, particularly when the science in these areas is imperfect. As is often the case, scientific inquiry can often produce surprising results that challenge us to re-think our practice. This webinar offers reflections on sexuality, sex therapy, the role of the therapist, and the problems in terms such as “addiction.” It also reviews recent studies of moral incongruity and its implications for treatment.
