I'm Andrew Rodriguez, a Christian therapist, speaker, and former youth pastor. In my counseling, I specialize in sexual and relational issues. PsychoBible is my outlet for discussing ideas about the intersection of Christianity and psychology, especially regarding sexuality and cultural issues.
Some topics to expect: Theology of the Body, therapy for unwanted same-sex attraction, and the culture war.
Do you have sexual memories that bother you? Would you like to reduce your arousal associated with these memories?
Are you curious about what actually happens in Reintegrative Therapy?
Well, you can participate in paid research conducted by Dr. Joseph Nicolosi Jr! He's seeking participants for a study testing out a brief Reintegrative Therapy protocol on unwanted sexual memories.
We need both men and women. And the memories can be opposite-sex or same-sex in nature. We're especially in need of more females and people with heterosexual memories. So, this would be a great opportunity if you have a p*rnography or sexual addiction struggle and would like to sample this approach.
Here's the basic info: https://psychologyforum.com/t/participate-in-paid-research-on-memory-recall-and-sexual-arousal.121640/?fbclid=IwAR3uLdOFSGE7tKU35maYp9IZQxt3J-iE2yKBobhMydgnYJHmvLJPreyXjqY
And some points:
- It's confidential.
- It's fast; takes only about 8 minutes. Then there will be a couple follow-ups to reassess.
- You can be from anywhere in the world.
- Participants will receive a total of $16.
- Dr. Nicolosi is personally conducting the research himself and performing the intervention.
- It would be completed remotely.
- Participants do not need to describe the sexual memory in detail.
- Participants have a 25% chance of just being placed in a placebo group with no intervention used.
- This research helps advance the science of Reintegrative Therapy.
If you are willing to participate, you may contact him at [email protected] and then he will contact you himself to set up a time to talk.
I've been noticing over the past few years this trend in my town of people leaving out their Halloween decorations way past October . . . particularly lawn skeletons. What is the symbolic meaning of this phenomenon? Here are my thoughts.

Here's an addendum to my story of discrimination in graduate school for offering counseling to people with unwanted same-sex attraction. What is my advice to students pursuing a career in the helping professions (psychology, counseling, marriage and family therapy, social work, etc.)? Seek and speak the truth no matter what. Here's why (featuring words from Jordan Peterson and M. Scott Peck).

I recorded this video on 6/25/25, the 10th anniversary of receiving the email that changed my life. I was four weeks away from finishing my year-long internship and graduating with my master's in counseling psychology. Then, the head of the internship program at Chestnut Hill College emailed me to stop my internship immediately because of my work with men coping with unwanted same-sex attraction. I've told my story in different venues before, including an article for the Journal of Human Sexuality, but here is the full story . . . with no censorship or redactions.
