Bob and Amber bantered about addiction counseling, with a focus on pornography addiction and its impact on family members. Amber shared her 20+ year journey into addiction counseling accidentally through teaching and then working with teenagers in chemical dependency programs. They discussed strategies for working with resistant clients, the importance of language choice in therapy, and approaches to helping family members of addicts. The conversation covered practical techniques for dealing with trust issues, gaslighting, and recovery definitions.

Perhaps the most significant thing Amber modeled and discussed was how to both understand and talk with the families of those affected by the addictive behavior of others.
