Description

Listener discretion advised. 
DISCLAIMER: This episode is about Porn ADDICTION. There is a distinction between an addiction and something you do sporadically (that while not encouraged), you can stop and do not need professional help for. At no point am I vilifying guys and girls who struggle with being single and not having an outlet. I am not an alarmist nor do I believe that anyone who has watched Porn will automatically struggle with intimacy and marriage. There is a lot more to say on this topic and I am happy to have started the conversation on a topic that is very taboo. Life is not black and white and neither is any conversation! Perhaps we will re-visit this on a future episode.
The nature of this topic is very sensitive and private and it is because of that I wanted to put this important information on here. Our guest speaker is Naomi Lewis Afriat, LCSW, a Licensed Social Worker who has spent 15 years working with teens, young adults, couples and families.
Naomi relocated to Los Angeles in 2020 after living in New York for 15 years. Before leaving New York, Naomi worked with teens, parents, and families in overcoming challenges. She also ran a crisis hotline for parents and provided support in clinical settings. Naomi obtained her Masters in Social Work from Touro College in 2009. She also has a certificate in Crisis Counseling, is trained in EMDR and is a CSAT (Certified Sex Addiction Therapist). In her role as a CSAT, 
Naomi is passionate about supporting addicts, their spouses and their families struggling with sex addiction, intimacy disorders and related issues. The majority of her work in this area is focused on supporting Betrayed Partners of addicts, and helping couples reconnect after betrayal. Naomi is married and enjoys cooking and pursuing her artistic interests in her free time. She is licensed, and practices in CA, NJ, NY, FL, VA & NV.
