Best Practices Understanding Why and How to Assess and Treat Co-Occurring Disorders Sex and Drugs

Written by Marla Kauffman | February 25, 2022

**Please note that we are not able to offer CEUs for view recorded webinars. In order to obtain CEUs, please check our scheduled live webinars, or sign up for our newsletter updates to be alerted when they are scheduled.**

The goal of this talk is to examine how we can improve overall clinical care and clinical outcomes by clearly and openly assessing for sexual issues at the start of any treatment, especially if we wish to reduce recidivism among people with substance use disorders and emotional challenges.

Presenter

Robert Weiss, Ph.D., LCSW, Chief Clinical Officer of Seeking Integrity, is an expert in the treatment of adult intimacy disorders and related addictions, most notably sex/porn/relationship addictions along with co-occurring drug/sex addiction. A clinical sexologist and practicing psychotherapist, Weiss frequently serves as a subject matter expert for major media outlets including CNN, HLN, MSNBC, OWN, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, and NPR, among others.
