What I've Learned So Far: Essential Reflections on Working with Addiction and Betrayal, with Dr. Jake Porter


Listen Later

In this episode, Dr. Jake reflects on some of the things he's learned over the years he's worked with sex addicts and betrayed partners. He discusses why these lessons are important for both professionals in the field but also those individuals seeking to recovery from the consequences of addiction and betrayal. Dr. Jake expands on these eight lessons:

  1. Betrayal is an issue of justice.
  2. Disclosures can be healing rather than traumatic.
  3. Co-occurring disorders must be assessed, diagnosed, and treated.
  4. Empathy is essential for individual and relational healing.
  5. No one can set a boundary for anyone else (ask for disclosure).
  6. Grief is where the healing happens.
  7. Lack of capacity is different from lack of will.
  8. Values provide a positive direction for change.
  9. Listen in to be empowered with knowledge that can change the course of your healing journey.
