Reclaiming Sexual Wholeness

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“As a therapist who treats those suffering with sex and pornography addiction, the chapter on the Neuroaffective Model is indispensable. My clients are often focused on getting rid of their acting-out behaviors, and rightfully so. However, so much is going on beneath the surface that needs to be tended to. This chapter in particular gives clients and therapists the language necessary to get to the deeper issues and to focus the therapeutic effort on trauma treatment and dismantling shame. Dr. Todd Bowman and the other clinicians with whom he has collaborated have written an essential book that not only seeks to treat sex and pornography addiction but seeks to treat the whole person who is created in the image of our Creator. This is a must-read for those offering hope and healing in a sexually broken world.”
