140. Geoff Steurer - Healing After Porn Betrayal: A Therapist’s Roadmap to Recovery
Sunday, 8 June, 2025
In this episode of the Unhooked Podcast, I interview Geoff Steurer, a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 25 years of experience in dealing with sexual betrayal, compulsive sexual behavior, and addiction. Geoff is the creator of the Courageous Together program and the co-author of 'Love You, Hate the Porn.' We delve into the intricacies of overcoming betrayal trauma induced by pornography, the importance of full disclosure, and why traditional marriage counseling often fails in these scenarios. Geoff also explains the stages of healing and how couples can rebuild trust and intimacy. This conversation is filled with hope, accountability, and practical steps for everyone struggling with or supporting someone in recovery from compulsive behavior.🔹 Want personalized support?
