Hello, and welcome to the Feeling Good Podcast, where you can learn powerful techniques to change the way you feel. I am your host, Dr. Rhonda Borowski, and joining me here in the Murrieta studio is Dr. David Burns. Dr. Burns is a pioneer in the development of cognitive behavioral therapy and the creator of the new Team Therapy. He's the author of Feeling Good, which has sold over 5 million copies in the United States and has been translated into over 30 languages. His latest book, Feeling Great, contains powerful new techniques that make rapid recovery possible for many people struggling with depression and anxiety. Dr. Burns is currently an emeritus adjunct professor of clinical psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine. Hello, David, and welcome everyone who's listening. This is the Feeling Good Podcast, and we're at episode 437. We are so lucky today because we have Tyann Truong with us. She's a level five team CBT therapist and trainer based out of Oklahoma.
She's a licensed professional counselor here today because we're going to be talking about porn addiction. And Tyann also is a licensed alcohol and drug counselor. So welcome, Tyann.
Hi, Rhonda. Hi, Dr. Burns. I'm so grateful to be here.
I'm excited that you're on the podcast because every time you are, you've given such dynamic and powerful and helpful presentations. And I'm sure this one will be no different, but much more exciting in a way. Exactly.
So I thought I would start off by reading a pretty heartfelt endorsement. And Tiana, whenever you're on, I feel so much warmth and heart connection that I thought this would be a good podcast to read. And this is from Maggie. And she wrote, Dear Dr. Burns and Dr. Borowski, I hope this message finds you both well. I recently listened to the podcast episode where my case was featured. It was an Ask David episode. And I believe her question was featured... It was episode 425, and she wrote to us about it. I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude. Dr. Burns, your insights helped me realize something profound, that I need to be kinder to my mother. especially as she ages and becomes more challenging for me to navigate emotionally.
This has been such an eye-opening and transformative realization. It's one that I carry with me daily. And Rhonda, your input into the discussion was equally impactful. Your thoughtful perspective added depth and clarity to the conversation, and I felt truly seen and understood through your contributions. I find myself reflecting on the importance of family forgiveness and love. I feel touched and inspired by the kindness and care you both bring to your work. And I'm more motivated than ever to approach my relationship with my mother with greater patience and compassion. Thank you for your incredible work and for sharing your wisdom so generously. You've made a real difference in my life, and I'm so grateful for the timing of this lesson as my mom and I enter this tender stage of life together. Warm regards, Maggie.
Well, thank you so much, Maggie, for that beautiful note. And I'm thrilled that you're enjoying and experiencing a transformation in your relationship with your mother, particularly at this time of her aging. And Who knows how much longer she has to live or any of us have to live. And to be able to spend that time in love and warmth and closeness rather than frustration and irritation is a beautiful gift for sure. And when we give you that gift, you're giving that gift to us as well. So thank you, Maggie. It was wonderful getting your email and your kind words.
So Tyanne, you're here today in your capacity as a team therapist, but also as a licensed alcohol and drug counselor. You have a lot of expertise in addictions. We were talking about several different types of addictions you could talk about. And you gave the option of talking about porn addiction. And David and I are really excited about that. I don't think we've talked about that on the podcast yet. So how would you like to begin?
