Pornography has never been easier to access and consume. While experts don’t agree on labeling its problematic use as “addiction,” its use targets the same areas of the brain as substances. And its use can be detrimental to health and well-being. We’re joined by licensed marriage and family therapist Danielle Sukenik, assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. She shares what the research says about the problematic use of pornography – and the impact its use has on the individuals and couples she sees in practice. You'll also hear what researchers know about the impact pornography has on the developing brain.
