"Author, Ken Adams, is one of those rare combinations of competence
as a writer, clinician, and researcher.
This book is developing a loyal readership fast, which is probably because Ken is one of the more astute observers of the connections between shame, abuse, and sex addiction."

-Dr. Patrick Carnes, referring to Dr. Adams' book Silently Seduced:
When Parents Make Their Children Partners

"Outstanding! Dr. Adams is an engaging, stimulating presenter.
His material was thorough, substantive, sophisticated and totally accessible.
I've applied many of his concepts to my work and look forward to more."

- Renee S. Katz, Ph.D. author/editor When Professionals Weep

"Dr. Adams' workshop was thoroughly engrossing. It touched on subject matter
that has been greatly neglected for too long yet is central in the lives
of many people. His approach to this issue [enmeshment] was
thorough, clear, challenging, and, at times, moving. Don't miss it!"

- Ted Wolgamot, Psy.D., LCPC, CSAT

"Always superb!"
"Excellent material, excellent presenter."
"Great presentation & model for assessing enmeshment."
"This was the best seminar I attended."
"Top flight - extremely helpful & enlightening."

- Comments from participants about Dr. Adams Workshop at the SASH - October 2006 Conference
