Reconnection Podcast with Dr. Michael Barta

Reconnection Podcast is dedicated to uncovering the real roots of sexual addiction, called intimacy disorder. Join Dr. Michael Barta, creator of the Reconnection Model, as he answers honest questions from clients and therapists and shares practical insights on healing—not through willpower, but through rewiring. The Reconnection Model is based on the truth that sexual compulsivity isn’t the problem—it’s the brain’s attempt to fix a deeper wound: disconnection. Intimacy disorder begins when the brain and nervous system don’t get what they need to feel safe, connected, and emotionally present. This wires the system for protection over connection, leading to survival-based behaviors like avoidance and control. Dr. Barta's five-day Reconnection Intensives are designed to heal these early wounds by restoring what was missing and rebuilding the capacity for authenticity, vulnerability, transparency, and presence. No graphic content. Just honest, respectful conversations about healing. Reconnection Moments is a clinical mental health podcast exploring the neuroscience of intimacy disorders, sexual compulsivity, and true healing. Hosted by Dr. Michael Barta, Ph.D. — a licensed psychologist with over 30 years of experience — this show offers trauma-informed insights, grounded in the Reconnection Model®, a neurobiological approach to recovery. Each episode shares compassionate guidance for individuals, partners, and clinicians seeking to understand the root causes of disconnection and how real change begins in the nervous system.
