Dr. Ken Adams, renowned clinician, author, and expert in the field of sex addiction treatment—joins Wendy Conquest and Jeanne Vattuone live from the IITAP Symposium to discuss his groundbreaking new book Light in the Dark co-authored with Dr. Mary Meyer and Culle Vande Garde, this book is the first of its kind to give voice to the lived experiences of adult children of sex addicts.
Ken opens up about his own journey, the shame he carried, and the powerful decision to share his personal story in the book. He also breaks down the core structure of the work: personal narratives, common characteristics of adult children, roles they play in the family, and a clear path to healing—with an emphasis on reclaiming personal power and moving beyond a victim identity.
Whether you’re a clinician, a survivor, or someone looking to understand the intergenerational impact of sexual addiction in families, this episode offers hope, clarity, and a new lens for healing.
