How to Deal With Unwanted Porn Consumption, a Conversation with a Mental Health Professional

Isabella was born and raised in Guatemala where she was exposed to porn at a young age. Later in life, she experienced how porn can disrupt a couple’s intimacy and relationship harmony with her ex-husband. Her negative experiences with porn consumption motivated her to become a therapist so she could help others, and today, she has more than six years of experience working toward becoming a licensed therapist in Guatemala. Isabella has helped many patients work through their unwanted porn consumption by providing an open and trusting environment. In this episode, listen to Isabella talk with podcast host, Garrett Jonsson, about the issue of shame when dealing with a compulsion to watch porn, why someone’s perception of the issue matters, and why setbacks don’t automatically mean failure.
