When Your Child Is Also Struggling With Pornography Use; With Jeremy Leavitt LMFT

Listen Later

Are you navigating parenting a child who struggles with compulsive behaviors? For those who have experienced betrayal trauma, this can bring up a lot of fears, triggers, and concern. Amie and Alana are joined this week by special guest, Marriage and Family Therapist, Jeremy Leavitt, to discuss the exploratory and compulsive behaviors your children may be experiencing, and how you can help. Plus, listen to the end for the one potentially awkward question Jeremy recommends all parents ask their teens.


In this episode you’ll learn more about:

  • The four pillars of sobriety (Support, Successes, Accountability, Insight)
  • How youth support groups differ from adult support groups
  • Understanding shame and how to better respond
  • How parents’ fears can sabotage a child’s healing
  • How should a parent react to a child’s compulsive behaviors 
  • Why being in tune to your own emotions allows you to have more trust in your children
  • Loving, honoring, and embracing sexuality
