Addiction, Compulsions and Impulsivity, OH MY!
About this Podcast:
Natasha was so excited to have the chance to talk to Larry & Ricky Siegel again. The Siegal Brothers and Natasha discuss all the language that gets thrown around - consistently in clinically inaccurate ways. Especially in conservative and high-demand religious communities, the term “addiction” gets used not only by lay people, but other mental health professionals, in ways that pathologize people’s sexuality.
