253 - Gaslighting, Manipulating, & Lying

Men and women struggling with unwanted sexual behavior or sexual brokenness often work very hard to protect themselves. Protecting themselves from the pain in life and protecting themselves from the consequences of their behavior. This often takes the form of gaslighting, manipulating, and lying. On today’s episode, we’re joined by one of our clinicians, Eileen Fagan, to talk through why those struggling chose these behaviors, how spouses can identify them, and how couples can heal from their effects.RESOURCESFull Episode Video (YouTube)Genesis Process (Michael Dye's Recovery Resource)Center For Healthy SexBetrayal & Beyond (Women's Betrayal Resource)Hope For Men (Men's Betrayal Resource)Seven Pillars Of Freedom (Men's Recovery Resource)Recovery Action Plan (For Struggling Spouse)Recovery Action Plan (For Betrayed Spouse)Pure Desire CounselingDisclosure Process CounselingRelapse Prevention Tool/Three Circles (Recovery Tool) GET STARTEDSummit 2026!: Register NowFree eBook: 7 Keys To Understanding Betrayal TraumaFree eBook: 5 Steps to Freedom From PornSchedule Your Free 15-Minute Counseling ConsultationJoin A Pure Desire Online Group SOCIALSFollow us on FacebookFollow us on InstagramFollow us on X (Twitter) Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
