#12 - On Richard Cohen's Four Stage Model

In this season finale, Mr. Richard Cohen, author of Coming Out Straight: Understanding Same-Sex Attraction joins me in an intense yet heartwarming discussion of the four areas and four stages of healing that he outlines in his book, as part of a comprehensive and holistic plan to healing and growth. We dissect, in details, the different stages from grounding and transitioning to healing homo- and hetero-emotional wounds, in line with the the psychology of SSA covered in previous episodes. We also address commonly-asked questions towards the end of the episode, with some uplifting messages from Richard to men and women with SSA, as well as parents and family members. A very rewarding and humbling talk, not to be missed!Links to resources mentioned in the episode:- Coming Out Straight: Understanding Same-Sex Attraction by Richard Cohen- TED Talk: "The Great Porn Experiment" by Gary Wilson- Recovery of Your Inner Child by Lucia Capacchione- Positive Approaches to Healthy Sexuality Organization- Ten Days to Self-Esteem by David Burns- Joel 2:25 Organization- Time, Touch and Talk Organization- Straight Struggle Discord PlatformSend as an anonymous one-way text message
