This survey is for either the addict or spouse who have experienced a therapist-facilitated clinical disclosure. Please click on the link below to access the survey.
Dear Community,
One more time… We need your help! Please pass along this survey to anyone you know that has experienced a facilitated disclosure. As of right now, we only have 35 respondents – we could use many more! We are hoping to finish data collection soon. Here’s some information about the survey:
We all know how critical the disclosure process is, yet we have a huge shortage in research that evaluates what makes a facilitated disclosure process successful. I, along with my co-investigators, Justin and Heidi Monuteaux, are currently conducting a study that will help inform clinicians on how to conduct disclosure sessions that are as least traumatic as possible and can lead to a foundation from which a couple can begin to heal from sex addiction. Given this is an area with an extreme shortage of research, every person’s input could make a big difference on how clinicians are taught and trained on best practices on how to handle disclosures. We will be asking questions about things such as how participants were prepared, how the disclosure was facilitated, the relationship with the therapist, and their thoughts and feedback on the process.
I am attaching an informational flier that you can pass out about the study that contains information about the project and the link to the survey. Anyone who has experienced a facilitated disclosure process is eligible to take the survey. If you have experienced a disclosure yourself, we would be grateful if you (and your partner, if applicable) would participate.
Please pass the survey along to others such as friends in recovery. We are hoping for the largest distribution possible. This study was approved by the IRB at Northwest University.
