Resources for Mental Health Professionals 

​

As a mental health professional, you're often the one holding space for everyone else's healing, which can make it especially hard to find support for your own questions, struggles, or clinical challenges around sex addiction and betrayal trauma. AFAR is here to change that.

​

Whether you're a clinician seeking training in this specialty, a provider looking for consultation, or someone in the field navigating your own recovery journey, we're committed to advancing the research and resources that make this work sustainable and effective.

​

What You'll Find Here

• Peer-reviewed research on compulsive sexual behavior and betrayal trauma

• Clinical education and training opportunities from leading experts in the field

• Resources for building a specialty practice in addiction or betrayal trauma treatment

• Information on consultation groups, certifications, and continuing education

• Support groups for professionals in their own recovery journey (see Healers Group and Restoration Circle)

​

Advancing the Field, Together

Good clinical work in this space requires good research behind it. AFAR's mission is to make sure mental health professionals have access to the most current, evidence-based understanding of addiction and betrayal trauma, so you can do this work with confidence and integrity.
