Cases involving problematic sexual behavior are between a quarter and a third of all cases of child sexual abuse that come through Children's Advocacy Centers. How do we understand this behavior in teens? What are risk factors and key opportunities to interrupt and disrupt this behavior? What do we know about evidence-supported treatment for these teens? And how may existing evidence-based treatments and approaches be shaped and applied? We speak with Dr. Melissa Grady at the School of Social Service at Catholic University and Dr. Jamie Yoder, assistant professor of social work at Colorado State University.Topics:01:50 – Origin story08:37 – Trauma and childhood adversity17:17 – Attachment23:47 – Why TF-CBT?32:09 – Findings41:32 – What's next?48:32 – For more information Links:Melissa Grady, Ph.D., professor, National Catholic School of Social Service at Catholic UniversityJamie Yoder, Ph.D., assistant professor of social work, Colorado State University.“Developing a trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy application for adolescents with problematic sexual behaviors: A conceptual framework,” M.

This  talk will focus on utilizing Dan Siegel's theoretical framework he calls “Mindsight”, and his “9 Domains of Integration”. The podcast will also introduce the great American philosopher, Ken Wilber's “Integral or All Quadrant, All Level (AQAL) Meta-Theory. Eric will be discussing how he utilizes both of these theoretical frameworks in the screening, assessment and treatment of Chronically Problematic Sexual Behaviors.   He will briefly cover the core concepts of Mindsight and Interpersonal Neurobiology and Integral-Meta Theory. The “9 Domains of Integration” will then be presented and how they can be combined with Integral Meta-Theory to screen, assess and treat all types of Problematic Sexual Behaviors such as Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder in the form of compulsive use of ography, dating application, infidelity, cybersex and teledildonics.  Eric will explain how he utilizes the 9 Domains in conjunction with Integral Meta-Theroy  in his assessment and treatment of CSBD. He will introduce practical instruments such as utilizing the Psychograph and the Integration/Differentiation-Plex and how these can be used to help both clinicians and clients in the treatment process.  If you want to understand why your clinician would utilize Mindsight, the “9 Domains of Integration” and Integral Meta-Theory which Eric thinks is vital to keep pace with the current tsunami of all addictive disorders and hopefully provide a more accurate model for what physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, sexual “health” looks like for each individual.

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Eddie Capparucci as he shares his advocacy about countering addiction to sexual activity and porn, mostly catering to men, and the system he developed called the 9 inner children, which stems from 9 different types of negative factors that caused people into carrying certain mindsets into adulthood. Dr. Eddie shares the example of trauma due to neglect and abandonment, and real-life examples of how this manifests even in social situations that are not sexual in nature. Understanding the “child” you resonate with is helpful with countering how you would react to certain situations that cause anxiety and in Dr. Eddie's case, he uses this system mostly to help men recover from sex or porn addiction. So much to learn about childhood factors that lead to these problems in this episode so be sure to stay tuned! In this episode, you'll learn: ● Why Dr. Eddie refers to the emotional distress as “child” ● Different triggers for different types of child ● Why you need to know your inner child ● How Dr. Eddie applies this system to help men ● Understanding defense mechanisms ● And many more!

WHY MEN STRUGGLE TO LOVE  DR. EDDIE CAPPARUCCI PT 2 Dr. Eddie Capparucci is a licensed professional counselor and certified coach. He also is certified in the treatment of Problematic Sexual Behaviors and is the creator of the Inner Child Model for the treatment of sexual and pornography addiction. Among his many clients, Dr. Capparucci has worked with professional athletes including NFL and MLB players and television personalities. He serves as the clinical director for the National Decency Coalition, an organization working with state governments to help limit the access of pornography to minors. His ministry is “Abundant Life Counseling” located in Highlands, NC. He is the author of several books, including https://amzn.to/3MyALRd (“Going Deeper: How the Inner Child Impacts Your Sexual Addiction;”)https://amzn.to/3MtCB5Q (“Removing Your Shame Label: Learning to Break Free of Shame and Feel God's Love”) and his most recent book, https://amzn.to/3EN9APF (“Why Men Struggle to Love: Overcoming Relational Blind Spots.”) You've identified 9 inner child symptoms and core emotional triggers. Can you share some of them with us? Explain the term “Emotional Intimacy” and how that relates to sexual addictions or porn addictions… But if someone is in a committed relationship, marriage, etc., aren't they emotionally bonded, to use your term from the book, to their partner? Your most recent book, https://amzn.to/3EN9APF (“Why Men Struggle to Love: Overcoming Relational Blind Spots,”) why do you believe this book is so needful at this point in our culture today? The title of your book is, https://amzn.to/3EN9APF (“Why Men Struggle to Love,”) so, I guess the question I need to ask is, “Why do men struggle to love?” Is it true that some of this relates back to things that happened in their childhood? Or is that just a popular fallacy? In your book, https://amzn.to/3EN9APF (“Why Men Struggle to Love,”) you state your mission is not to “rid men of their destructive behaviors, but instead, to transform their hearts.”  Can you explain how that will help them gain victory over their sexual addictions? With the current internet generation, porn is so accessible as compared to when I was growing up. You used to have to the “five and dime” store and then stand in the aisle and try and look at the girlie magazines without drawing attention.  It's not like that today. Just about anyone and any age can access things that, just can't be described, it's so bad…  How can we avoid all that we are faced with? Can you briefly go over some of the 14 “Blind Spots” men need to overcome in order to emotionally connect to their spouse, significant other, etc., as outlined in your book? What could the consequences be if men fail to connect or emotionally bond with others? Now, this next question can be twisted to mean different things and that is not my intention. But there are many women who dress, let's just say, seductively, on purpose. I know we are focusing here on men struggling with sexual addictions, but what are your thoughts on someone of the opposite sex that strive to plant those thoughts in the minds of men? Do they have some underlying problems similar to the ones you are sharing about men and their sexual addictions? Dr. Capparucci, this is all so interesting – and so needful – in the culture we are living in today. How can someone order a copy of your book, https://amzn.to/3EN9APF (“Why Men Struggle to Love: Overcoming Relational Blind Spots?)” Is it available on Amazon? If someone wanted to get in touch with you, to ask a question, to seek your services or a referral to someone near them or maybe possibly do an interview such as this, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? I'll put all of this down in the show notes below. Folks, especially you men out there, admit it. You've seen yourself in some of the things Dr. Capparucci has been discussing today. I know I've seen...

First question, other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Eddie Capparucci?” Your wife is responsible for leading you, ultimately to the Lord, right? With your background in the corporate world, how did you get involved in helping to set men free from sexual addictions? You have, more or less, coined the term, “Getting rid of porn addiction by healing the inner child.”  Can you tell us a bit about what that term actually means? You've identified 9 inner child symptoms and core emotional triggers. Can you share some of them with us? Explain the term “Emotional Intimacy” and how that relates to sexual addictions or porn addictions… Folks, especially you men out there, admit it. You've seen yourself in some of the things Dr. Capparucci has been discussing today. I know I've seen myself in some of these things. It's there. It needs to be dealt with. God's Word is there for you. All deliverance is in and through God's Word. But, many, many people, especially men, need the extra help to overcome these types of addictions.

Dr. Rob continues his discussion with Dr. Eddie Capparucciis, the creator of the unique Inner Child Model for the treatment of Problematic Sexual Behaviors, to talk about common blind spots someone in recovery might have. When addicts are in their addiction, they can exhibit strong narcissistic tendencies, which can make it difficult to connect with others and see their perspectives.    TAKEAWAYS: [1:45] Addicts have a hard time seeing their own blindspots. What should they be aware of?  [2:40] Curiosity of people is an important way to connect with others. Addicts can lack this curiosity.  [3:35] Addicts can be hypersensitive to rejection and criticism.  [5:00] People learn how to love from their caregivers.  [6:20] In a lot of ways, addicts have been emotionally neglected. [8:50] In recovery, we have the opportunity to break the cycle.  [10:20] You break the cycle by being emotionally present.  [12:45] Emotionally unavailable people tend to be ‘do-ers', they try to fix the problem by finding a solution, instead of being present with their emotions.  [16:10] As long as you're oblivious to the pain you've been through, you will also be oblivious to the pain you're causing others.  [18:35] How do you work through your issues if you can't afford therapy?  [21:40] Dr. Eddie talks about the current work and programs he's a part of to help others. [24:15] Don't have the financial resources to go to therapy? Dr. Eddie can help.    RESOURCES: Sex and Relationship Healing @RobWeissMSW Sex Addiction 101  Seeking Integrity Cruise Control: Understanding Sex Addiction in Gay Men  Prodependence: Moving Beyond Codependency Abundantlifecounselingga.com Dr. Eddie on LinkedIn Strugglingmen.org   QUOTES: “Anyone who has struggled with addiction has some strong narcissistic tendencies.” “Your kids are watching everything. Whether they're 4 or 14. That's one of the ways we don't get an understanding of what we need.” “It's never too late to start making changes.” “Even in the most troubled families, they are oblivious, even if they don't mean to be.”

Growing up, men are taught, either directly or indirectly, that showing emotion is a sign of weakness, and that if they do, they will be mocked. Vulnerable is almost a derogatory term for men. As a result, the vast majority of men have low emotional IQ, which correlates with low relational IQ because we need that emotional component to make the relationship more vibrant and exciting. In this episode, Dr. Eddie Capparucci will elaborate the root cause of the problem behind the behaviour and how he exclusively assists men in identifying and addressing these issues. Dr. Eddie Capparucci is a licensed counselor and coach, certified in treating Problematic Sexual Behaviors, and is the creator of the Inner Child Model for the treatment of sex/porn addiction. Eddie has worked with professional athletes and television personalities. He is the author of several books including Going Deeper: How the Inner Child Impacts Your Sexual Addiction and Why Men Struggle to Love: Overcoming Relational Blind Spots. Check out the transcript of this episode on Dr. Jessica Higgin's website.

[3:20] Trauma plays a major part in addiction.  [5:10] Sex addiction goes further than just sex.

It's the whole presentation that you've been giving to the world.” “People who deal with addiction do not know how to sit with emotional discomfort or distress.” “I can tell you all the ways I'm a jerk, but learning how to be different is more of a commitment.”

When we think about problematic sexual behaviors in youth, we often think of a neighbor child, or someone at school. Someone acting out in the community with a child of our own. But rarely do we think about sibling sexual abuse, which we think of as somehow very rare. As you're going to hear in this episode, it isn't. It's not uncommon.Some of the most difficult cases we deal with at Children's Advocacy Centers are sibling sexual abuse cases. Mom and Dad come in, horribly upset. You have one child who is the victim, and they want to support that child. But at the same time they were terribly concerned about the child who had harmed their other child. The child who had thought it up and acted it out. And trying to think about how to prevent them from winding up and suffering all the pain and indignities of the criminal justice system.What do we do in these cases that can actually be productive? How do we understand them moving forward? And how do we address the research gaps that leave us not always knowing entirely what to do?Topics in this episode:Why there's so little research on sibling sexual abuse (2:15)Key findings about the research (8:00)Poor mental health outcomes (15:26)Risk  factors in large families (23:50)What can we do to protect children?
