Psychoanalytic therapist Graeme Daniels talks about sex addiction/problem sexual behaviors via the lens of psychoanalytic theory, drawing from the book he co-authored, Getting Real About Sex Addiction. In this episode, he interweaves an ongoing discussion of intrapsychic splitting with theories of developmental trauma, with applications for both acting out individuals and their impacted partners. Much reference in this podcast to the theories of Freudian analyst and trauma treatment pioneer, Sandor Ferenczi.
