It represents a person’s deceptively hidden sexual, romantic, and/or emotional intimacy with others that is not shared with the primary intimate partner.  \nThis paper discusses deceptive sexuality – a specific type of abuse problem – and the trauma-related experiences and symptoms of people impacted by it. The intent of this paper is to serve as a helpful resource for people who may be experiencing these problems (abusers and victims), as well as for healthcare professionals who are seeking knowledge on how to best respond to and treat clinical presentations associated with deceptive sexuality. My own learning as a mental health professional has come about, in large part, through a process of sitting in rooms with victims of deceptive sexuality – with intimate partners and spouses who have been abused and traumatized in a very specific way – as an empathic witness, listening to and hearing their traumatic realities, with an open mind and heart. This paper was written as a synthesis of their voices – of the human beings living through and harmed by these experiences. This paper is very much for them – the people suffering – and was written with them in mind, and in my heart. With this type of abuse and trauma still lying in our collective darkness, it’s my hope, particularly for victims but very much also for abusers, that this paper may serve as a lighthouse that gives people hope and support as they attempt to survive.  \nReading clinical perspectives on abuse and trauma, particularly if these issues are personal, may bring about emotional and psychological reactions that are upsetting, challenging, and sometimes overwhelming. Therefore, it is important that you be mindful of time, place, context, intention, and purpose as you read this paper. The content should betaken in and absorbed in a way that recognizes, appreciates, and honors your unique reactions to the material and the impacts that the material may have on you. Importantly, the information in this paper should be read and metabolized slowly, over time – this paper is not intended to be read in one sitting.  \nSincerely,  \nDr. Omar Minwalla  \nAbout Dr. Minwalla and the Deceptive Sexuality and Trauma Model  \nDr. Omar Minwalla first studied sexual trauma among partners in 2005. He collaborated with Silvia Jason, MFT, CSAT, who articulated the initial dimensions of the partner trauma concept and highlighted the salience and prevalence of emotional abuse and gaslighting in sex addiction-compulsivity (Jason, 2009). Using Dr. Minwalla’s initial research along with Silvia Jason’s initial dimension articulation, Dr. Minwalla and Silvia Jason created and conducted workshops together and carried out research to further develop the trauma model (Jason & Minwalla, 2008). Dr. Minwalla and the Institute for Sexual Health (ISH) then went on to further develop the term sex addiction-induced trauma (SAIT) and the thirteen dimensions of sex addiction-induced trauma among partner","cbCaij2DrqwB9pZ9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaij2DrqwB9pZ9","pdf",1994947,33,"English","# Note from Dr. Minwalla\n# Deceptive Sexuality\n# The Deceptive Sexuality and Trauma (DST) Model\n## Deceptive Sexuality Trauma (DST)\n## Two Key Concepts of Deceptive Sexuality\n## Three Phases of Deceptive Sexuality Trauma\n## Traumatic Injuries and Symptoms of DST\n## Covert Phase\n## Exposure Phase\n## Symptom Progression Phase\n## Integrity-abuse Shaping of Intimate the Partner: Behaviors, Patterns, and Ongoing Progressive Conditions (Summary Table)\n# Clinical Considerations\n# Glossary of Terms\n# References","[{\"question\":\"What does “The Secret Sexual Basement” metaphor mean in the paper?\",\"answer\":\"It represents a deceptively hidden sexual, romantic, and/or emotional intimacy with others that is not shared with the primary intimate partner.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the DST Model define deceptive sexuality and its abuse dynamics?\",\"answer\":\"Deceptive sexuality involves problematic sexual behaviors combined with domestic and intimate partner relational abuse, typically including ongoing power-and-control attempts through psychological, physical, and/or sexual coercion.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this paper for different audiences?\",\"answer\":\"It is written as a helpful resource for people experiencing deceptive sexuality problems and for healthcare professionals seeking knowledge to respond to and treat related clinical presentations.\"}]","The Secret Sexual Basement - The Traumatic Impacts of Deceptive Sexuality on the Intimate Partner and Relationship - February 2021 (Revised November 2021) | PDF",1792215605,83]
