Facing the Shadow: Starting Sexual & Relationship Recovery
This presentation focuses on seven tasks critical for early sexual recovery. By focusing on the disruption of the addiction cycle, therapists assist in creating a relapse free �recovery zone� based on patient resilience rather than addictive deprivation. This becomes the context for recovering people to understand their own arousal template and sexual health. Therapists need to understand the obstacles presented by distorted courtship and sexual neurochemistry.

Eroticized Rage and Other Sexualized Feelings: Courtship, Compulsion & Cybersex
Each of us has an "arousal template" that governs our sexual attraction and relationships. Developmental problems, trauma and abuse, family messages, and life experiences can significantly damage that template. Key to understanding how that template works is eroticized feelings such as anger, fear and shame. By focusing only on behavior and cognitive distortions, therapists will miss key factors in courtship and sexual compulsion. No place is this better illustrated than in cybersex addiction, which is sometimes called the "crack-cocaine" of sex.

Therapists & Financial Disorders: Who is Leading the Blind
Financial disorders are emerging as a legitimate area for clinical intervention and empirical research. Examining ones own financial issues can bring about a wild ride of learning about deprivation and excess, work and money, and the real nature of professional happiness. One of our best teachers looks at one of our most difficult topics for a provocative, funny, and revealing session.

Staying in the Zone: The Long Term Therapist & Doing Long Term Therapy
All therapists notice that some days they are better than on others. This session looks at �being in the zone� and how to stay there. Building on the work of Csikszentmihaly, Jung, More, and others, Dr. Carnes explores the unique challenge of shadow and excellence presented by doing therapy over the professional lifetime. How to maintain a sense of self, a sense of the profound, and a sense of humor.
