  • Robert Weiss Ph.D., LCSW: Prodependence — Building Healthy Relationships | Reloscope #57
    Jul 18 2024

    This week on Reloscope: The Relationships Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella is joined by Robert Weiss, Ph.D., LCSW to discuss the notion of ‘prodependence’ rather than codependence.

    An educator, author, and licensed clinician for nearly 30 years, Robert Weiss, Ph.D., LCSW currently serves as the Chief Clinical Officer of Seeking Integrity, providing online education, support, and residential treatment for male sexual addicts and their families. But that aside, he has authored 11 books, including ‘Prodependence’, ‘Sex Addiction 101’, and ‘Out of the Doghouse’.

    In this episode, Robert Weiss, Ph.D., LCSW first establishes his definition of ‘prodependence’ and shares his rationale for coining the term: he believes that ‘prodependence’ is a healthier way of viewing relationships. He goes on to detail just how viewing relationships through the ‘prodependent’—instead of codependent—lens can benefit a couple’s mental health. Together, Marie and Dr. Rob discuss daily habits that can prove useful in reframing our mindset to prodependence.

    So, tune in for a fresh perspective on relationship dynamics, and perhaps in the process, re-evaluate your own.
