In Part I, the focus of attention is on the evidence-based science, the psychological and behavioral symptoms, who is at risk, and brain functions involved, behind this neuropsychological syndrome. In this video, Healing the Sex Addicted Brain, you will learn all about interdisciplinary evidence-based treatments, specific multimodal approaches including the use of certain psychophysiological measures, behavior-modification, specific cognitive-behavioral treatments, certain aspects of dialectical behavioral therapy, and trauma-focused therapies. In addition, you will learn how to measure an individual's readiness to change, and the changes in the behavioral functions of the pre-frontal cortex. The issue of relapse and follow-up will also be addressed.
Presenter Info: With a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, Dr Ullman has been educating, researching, diagnosing and treating individuals, couples, groups, families, and first responders for trauma and addiction-based disorders for 30 years, and has devoted both her research efforts and clinical work to the diagnoses and treatment specific to disorders of arousal dysregulation. This population includes children and adults that have experienced early childhood trauma such as sexual abuse, neglect, and/or violence. Unfortunately and through no fault of their own, a great many of these children, unable to self-regulate their emotions secondary to their abuse, develop issues in adulthood such as substance (drug and alcohol) and process (sex, food, self-harm, gambling) addictions, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), explosive uncontrollable anger, and personality distortions that may include Narcissistic (NPD) and Borderline (BPD) personality disorders. In addition to teaching at various colleges and universities, Dr Ullman is an active emergency disaster responder for military and governmental agencies when disaster strikes, and maintains a private practice in the Philadelphia (mainline) Pennsylvania area of the United States. In addition to the local office, a considerable portion of her practice includes a national and international clientele via HIPAA/HITECH-compliant telemental health video web-therapy around the world.
