Luis Maimoni
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Sex addiction is something that is frequently discussed in the media, but there is no "official diagnosis" for it in the DSM-5, our diagnostic manual. Some say this is because there is insufficient research on the topic.
The clients I've met with who have believed themselves to be "sex addicts" were actually using sex to cope with another issue. Once the other issue was identified and treated, the need to engage in the unhelpful sexual coping activity was greatly reduced. I can't promise you the same result, but I can promise to treat you respect as we work together to understand what is driving the behavior you are seeking to reduce.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with sex addiction or problematic porn use and the impact these behaviors have on trust, intimacy, and self respect. Out of control sexual behavior can feel confusing, isolating, and deeply shame inducing, especially when it conflicts with your values or causes harm to relationships you care about.
As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, I help clients understand how these patterns develop and what maintains them. Our work focuses on identifying triggers, emotional needs, and coping strategies, while also building healthier ways to manage stress, desire, and connection. Recovery is not about punishment or rigid control. It is about increasing awareness, accountability, and choice.
When sexual behavior has affected a relationship, I also work with partners to address betrayal, rebuild trust, and establish clearer boundaries. Whether you are seeking help individually or as a couple, therapy offers a structured and supportive space to reduce shame, interrupt destructive cycles, and move toward healthier sexuality and more honest connection.

Douglairian psychology apc
Marriage and Family Therapist, Lmft
I offer a compassionate, non-shaming alternative to sex addiction treatment—one that focuses on understanding, choice, and sexual health, rather than labels or lifelong pathology. I work with individuals struggling with out-of-control sexual behavior, compulsive pornography use, infidelity, sexual shame, and relationship distress. Instead of viewing sexuality as the problem, we look at how sexual behavior functions in your life and what it is trying to regulate or communicate.

Sexual Recovery Coach
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CST, CADC-III, CTA-CC
Sexual addiction carries with it a degree of secrecy, and often shame, that other addictions do not have to deal with. The worst part of a sexual addiction for many is the compulsion to do things that are outside their personal value system. When a person behaves in a way that is not congruent with their moral compass, it can create great distress and confusion. My program to treat this addiction is based on proven techniques involving cognitive-behavioral, trauma-centered, and neurological components. Over time we can help you rewire your brain so that these compulsions no longer drive you.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Sex and pornography addiction can be treated using hypnotherapy, which aims to rewire subconscious patterns, reduce urges, and break addiction cycles by focusing on positive habit replacement. How Hypnotherapy Treats Porn/Sex Addiction:Rewiring the Brain: It helps change the brain’s dopamine-driven, rewarding link to pornography, reducing automatic urges.Subconscious Re-programming: Hypnotherapy can uncover and address the root causes of the addiction, including underlying shame or trauma.Behavioral Change: Techniques such as suggestion therapy, visualization, and regression are used to associate negative experiences with porn, while fostering healthier habits.
My clients addicted to sex and porn have been resilient and recovering due to my Dicit Hypnotherapy.

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Problematic sexual behaviors — including compulsive porn use — are rarely about sex itself. They are most often about pain, disconnection, shame, or a nervous system looking for relief. I work from a harm reduction, client-centered approach using CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-focused methods to understand what's underneath the behavior and actually address it. I do not work from a twelve-step or "sex addiction" framework — not because I dismiss your struggle, but because shame-based models tend to create more of the very thing driving the behavior in the first place. You are not broken. Let's figure out what's actually going on.
