About this Event

This training is intentionally positioned as a foundational CPD day, not a specialist diploma. It aims to: - Build confidence, awareness, and ethical sensitivity around pornography and sex addiction in general practice settings. - Offer a strong base for those who may later pursue multi‑day diplomas or accredited specialist programmes in this field. Participants can expect a trauma‑informed, non‑shaming learning environment that invites self‑reflection on personal values, biases, and assumptions, fostering clearer, more compassionate therapeutic responses. Participants will explore: - Psychological, relational, and neurological dimensions of compulsive sexual behaviours and pornography use. - The impact of problematic porn use and sexual compulsivity on partners, families, and relationships. - Assessment considerations, risk awareness, and when/how to refer on for specialist help. The day blends teaching input, reflective practice, and applied discussion so that learning connects directly with participants’ real‑world client work
