All About This Workshop
Working from a clinical model based on trauma and addiction, partners impacted by the destruction of sexual compulsion will have the opportunity to begin healing from intimate betrayal. Developed in collaboration with Claudia Black, PhD, Meadows Senior Fellow and author of Deceived: Facing Sexual Betrayal, Lies, and Secrets and Intimate Treason, participants will learn about the biology and behavior of sex and love addiction and will explore their own relational templates.
This is an experientially based workshop that will assist partners to move through their grief and loss, break free from the attachment to fantasy, and enhance emotional self-regulation. Developing internal, external, and sexual boundaries, participants will learn how to move from a position of victimization to personal empowerment. This workshop creates a safe and compassionate environment that will provide a path to healing that gives voice to the partners’ truth as they travel on their own journey in recovery.
Cost: $3,450, which includes
- meals
- evening activities (yoga, tai chi, auricular acupuncture, live music)
- 12-Step meeting
- Brain Spa access
