My Addict’s Therapist Blames Me for His Wrong Doings! - a podcast by Robert Weiss, PhD, MSW and Tami VerHelst
from 2020-12-29T16:28:04
Rob and Tami explain in depth what a betrayed spouse is going through during the first year and a half after a reveal, and what a person in recovery can do about it. They also answer listener questions about porn addiction since the age of 10, and what to do when a CSAT therapist sides with the addict and not with the betrayed spouse.
