#082 - Curing Gayness (David Pickup, LMFT)

Summary: Reintegrative therapist David Pickup joins us to discuss the difference between reintegrative therapy and gay conversion therapy, whether or not homosexual feelings are innate or the result of socialization or trauma, how reintegrative therapy supposedly works, the quality (or lack thereof) of studies supporting these kinds of therapies, and whether or not therapies addressing homosexual feelings should be banned. *** SUPPORT US ON PATREON *** http://patreon.com/mowe *** SHOW NOTES *** https://mowe.blog/podcast/curing-gayness *** BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS *** "Born This Way?" by J.
