A Conversation on Self-Love and Healthy Sexuality ft. Alex Katehakis
In this podcast, Ross interviews Alex Katehakis, a renowned marriage and family therapist specializing in sexual addiction and healthy sexuality. Alex shares her journey, starting with an interest in human sexuality and later focusing on sex and love addiction, as well as sexual codependency. She explains the difference between healthy and problematic sexual behaviors, noting that it’s not the acts themselves but the misuse of sex that causes issues. Alex also highlights how childhood trauma and emotional deprivation can distort one's view of love, sex, and intimacy.
The discussion touches on challenges faced by people struggling with codependency and self-love deficiency, particularly in relationships with narcissistic partners. Alex explains how early experiences shape the nervous system, leading to unhealthy patterns, where sex and love are often confused to avoid abandonment. Healing, she says, requires therapy, group support, and self-reflection. She emphasizes the importance of addressing trauma to develop a healthy sense of self and a balanced approach to intimacy.
