Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Do you feel you or your partner are a sex addict? Maybe, however not all sex behaviors constitute a sexual addiction, and sometimes the sex behaviors may be a manifestation of a different problem. Regardless of an addiction or not, I can help address these issues by identifying the triggers, mange impulses and urges, find healthy ways of changing the behaviors. Further, we will explore any deeper reasons behind the behaviors and address any underlying psychological or emotional issues that may contribute to sexual issues.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Kari Carter
Life Coach, APSATS certified, ACC, CPC, ADOH
The impact of sex and porn addiction on a partner is profound and often traumatic. Discovery can lead to shock, hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, body image struggles, and a deep rupture of emotional safety. My work focuses specifically on supporting the betrayed partner - not treating the addiction itself, but addressing the trauma response that follows it.
Using a partner-sensitive, trauma-informed model, I help clients stabilize their nervous system, establish protective boundaries, process betrayal wounds, and regain clarity about their next steps. Partners deserve support that validate the harm experienced rather than minimizing it or pathologizing their response.
Living alongside sex or porn addiction can leave you feeling unseen, unsafe, and questioning your worth. I specialize in supporting partners as they navigate the trauma of addiction-related betrayal, helping them move from chaos and confusion toward strength, clarity, and empowered decision-making.

Additionally, I incorporate Attachment-based approaches and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to explore underlying relational patterns and past traumas contributing to addictive behaviors, fostering self-awareness and facilitating healing in the journey towards recovery.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have found that people who are addicted to sex need to understand the function the addiction is playing in their life. With this knowledge, the individual can better address their problems and desires. I also teach people skills for unconditionally accepting themselves as shame and self-downing will not help them overcome their issues in this sphere of life. Finally, I teach people how to cope with sexual urges that will get them into trouble and how to live meaningful lives.
