Sex & Body Image--Part 2 With Sex Therapist Dr. Nicole Van Ness, LMFT

In episode 50 of Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast, I speak with Dr. Nicole Van Ness, who is a licensed marriage and family therapist, as well as a sex therapist. In part two of this two-part series, we discuss her take on how to get in touch with your body first in a neutral way, which can serve as a stepping stone to feeling pleasure in your body. We continue to explore the relationship between shame and sexuality.    ABOUT DR.
