Episode notes
Therapeutic Tools Beat Tradition

- Daniel Burgess found CBT and family-strategic methods dramatically improved sexual-health outcomes.
Silence Turns People Into Objects
- Sexual silence and lack of self-awareness turn partners into objects rather than people in relationships.
- The submitter became a tool in the relationship because she didn't know how to define or communicate her sexual needs.
Check A Therapist's Sex-Training
