Wednesday, July 15th, 2026   1:15 PM EDT -2:15 PM EDT
Yitzi Horowitz, LCSW
$29.99 USD Cost For Member: $0

Most psychotherapeutic approaches to compulsive sexuality and pornography follow an addictions model, with a focus on curbing behavior. This presentation will offer an introduction to a Jungian perspective on the unconscious processes of compulsivity. It will further address some insights that a Jungian perspective might offer the professional working with a person suffering with sexual compulsivity that will impact treatment.
