On Ep 189 Andrea Glik, LMSW explains the impact of trauma on our nervous system, depression as a survival response, the stress response cycle, the difference between glimmers and triggers, how BDSM can be used to heal trauma for both doms and subs, how she integrates clients BDSM experiences into therapy, plus how healing can manifest through CNC, little space, subspace, aftercare, and more.

American Sex

Changing America’s dysfunctional relationship with sex one laugh at a time, this award-winning podcast gets to the meat of what fuels our deepest, darkest turn-ons. Sex isn't just sex; it’s about everything – identity, power, politics, taboos, and the shame our culture thrives on. Recognizing how these elements seep into our bedrooms makes all the kinky, “weird” stuff we’re secretly into seem not so weird after all.Host Sunny Megatron is an acclaimed Clinical Sexologist, BDSM Educator, and Showtime TV host. Equal parts hilarious and informative, Sunny & her guests serve up real talk about kink, polyamory, sexual ethics, and more. From practical sex tips to candid conversations on sexual empowerment to the war on reproductive rights and sexual freedom, each topic is approached with a lightheartedness that’s second to none.On American Sex Podcast, Kink is Customizable™ and education is the new punk rock. The personal is undeniably political and tinkle-your-pants laughter is the antidote to sexual shame. Together, we’re on a mission to harness the power in our pleasure, embrace the subversion in our perversion, and challenge the puritanical, backward-ass views on sex that are as American as apple pie. ----- Visit americansexpodcast.com & sunnymegatron.com for more------ Submit your sex questions by email: [email protected]: @SunnyMegatron,Twitter: @AmericanSexPod, Intsa: @AmericanSexPodcast, Patreon: patreon.com/americansexAll Links: direct.me/sunnymegatronAmerican Sex Podcast is a proud member of Pleasure Podcasts.
