Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist
Sometimes the shame and the isolation becomes unbearable. Sometimes the devastating consequences of compulsive sexual behavior destroy family, job, and reputation. We are the region's leading outpatient treatment program helping individuals, spouses, and families heal from the affects of pornography addiction and other sexually compulsive behaviors. Our affordable program allows you to remain at home and seek recovery while continuing to work. Whether you are a man struggling with sexual behavor that is out of control, or the spouse or partner who suffering the trauma of discovery, our program gives you the sustained support and guidance you need to experience full recovery and the healing of the marital and family relationship. Our respectful and confidential setting promotes understanding, healing, and recovery. Research shows that success in recovery is most likely to occur and be maintained when an individual uses a combination of approaches including educational material, work in groups, and individual/couples therapy. We provide this comprehensive treatment program. Our nationally recognized treatment program is run by therapists trained in sexual addiction recovery. We gently uncover and heal patterns that feed the addictive process. What sets us apart is the support we give to spouses and partners. We encourage couples to attend together. Single adults and those whose partners are unable or unwilling to attend are, of course, also welcome. If you are a spouse or partner we want you to know that you are not alone. Most partners experience a wide range of emotion including denial, hurt, anger, and shame. Some even feel responsible for their partner's sexual compulsivity. Partners may feel so much pain that they begin to "shut down" and isolate themselves. Please know that if you are partner or spouse, your partner's sexual acting out IS NOT YOUR FAULT. You are not to blame. You deserve the help you need to heal.
