While boundaries are vital to the health of any relationship, they become especially crucial when dealing with a partner’s sex addiction. This course will guide you through a critical transformation, empowering you to set and maintain boundaries that meet your needs and support your wellbeing. You’ll learn to keep the focus on yourself instead of policing your partner or struggling to control his behavior.

  • Gaslighting by the addict stirs up paralyzing self-doubt

  • The addict has a variety of arguments and accusations to push back against respecting your boundaries
