173: Improving Sexual Intimacy When There's Been Damage By Pornography Use

Sexual intimacy is one of the biggest things that is damaged when their wife discovers her husband pornography use.

It can be scary for her to be intimate because of the insecurities and fears that this situation creates –

"Is he comparing me to other people he's seen?"

"Is he just using me as a part of his addiction?"

"I want to be intimate but I don't feel safe enough.. how can we restore that foundation?"

In this episode, I share with you specific things that you can do to rebuild safety and security so your sexual intimacy can improve.

For therapy with Sam:

I will work with you for 12 weeks to help you eliminate pornography use and the root cause that started it.

If after the 12 weeks you haven’t fully been able to quit, I’ll work with you 1-1 for free until you do.
