Clients aren't always aware that their p**n use might be problematic. They may well bring the symptoms of p**n addiction into counselling e.g. depression, anxiety, lack of motivation and difficulties in relationships (including erectile dysfunction).

This experiential workshop is aimed at trainee and qualified counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists who wish to increase their awareness of p**n addiction in order to offer a more effective therapeutic service to clients.
