On this episode of the Good Counsel Podcast, host Eric Bricker sits down with Kim Litton, licensed clinical social worker, certified sex addiction therapist, and author of I Do It For Her. Kim opens up about her personal journey through substance use, sex and love addiction, and the generational patterns she was determined to break for her children. Together, Eric and Kim explore the roots of complex trauma, the realities of growing up in the heart of the opioid crisis, and the powerful healing that comes from naming and de-shaming addiction. Kim also shares insights from her book and her therapeutic approach, including her concept of “compassionate structure,” which helps people rebuild self-trust and embrace recovery with kindness.

Whether you’re walking your own path of healing or supporting someone you love, this conversation is a powerful reminder that cycles can be broken and freedom is possible.
