Description
One of my favorite people, Britt Frank, returns to the podcast this week! We are exploring a topic suggested by a listener - obsessive love and love addiction. When I received this suggestion, I knew Britt was the perfect person to help me address things like what is obsessive love versus healthy love.
Britt Frank, MSW, LSCSW, SEP is a trauma therapist, teacher, and speaker who specializes in the "Science of Stuck." She works to empower people to understand the inner mechanisms of their brains and bodies. When we know how things work, the capacity for CHOICE is restored and life can and does change.
In this episode you’ll hear:
5:03 Britt starts out by defining “love addiction” and then explains the difference between love addiction and someone who has an anxious attachment style
14:47 What is actually happening when someone feels like they have obsessive love
17:01 We explore a list by SLAA about twelve characteristics of love and sex addiction
23:02 “Awareness without shame creates change.”
26:46 How to heal from love addiction: the first step is detox and withdrawal
37:22 “The solution to love addiction is self-parenting.”
