What You'll Discover in Reconnection

Trauma, the Brain, and Sexual Addictions: Addiction and compulsive behaviors aren’t just choices; they’re survival responses. Dr. Barta illustrates how early disconnection impacts the brain and nervous system, explaining why true healing requires addressing these foundational aspects.
Our Biological Need for Coregulation: Discover why healing happens in relationships and how emotional balance and regulation can be restored through healthy connection with others.
The Four Pillars of Reconnection: Real recovery begins by reconnecting with oneself and others, grounded in authenticity, vulnerability, transparency, and presence.
Practical Tools for Real Change: This book is packed with insights and tools that empower both those in recovery and those who support them, giving readers concrete steps toward healing.

A Groundbreaking Approach, Proven Through Real-Life Success

In 2017, Dr. Barta introduced his first model, TINSA®, which brought a groundbreaking neurobiological approach to the understanding of sex addiction. His first work was built on the research available in 2013, which deeply resonated with individuals seeking healing.

However, in the world of science and therapeutic practice, knowledge must evolve. Research that is over ten years old, though once revolutionary, no longer meets the rigorous standards required for best practices.

His new groundbreaking Reconnection Model® not only explains the deeper, core drivers ofsexually compulsive behaviors but also provides an immediate path to healing. His new model dives deeper into the root causes of disconnection, offering a transformative framework for lasting recovery and meaningful reconnection.

As the book release approaches, stay tuned for more updates. Dr. Barta looks forward to sharing these transformative insights with you, as together, we explore the path to deep, enduring healing.
