Seattle, Washington therapist: Ryan Shannon, counselor/therapist
Sex/Porn Addiction

Ryan Shannon

Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA, MA, MS
Sexual behavior or pornography use can become concerning when it feels difficult to control, conflicts with your values, interferes with relationships, or becomes a way of escaping loneliness, anxiety, shame, boredom, or emotional pain. You may find yourself repeating the behavior despite wanting to stop, hiding it from others, or cycling between temporary relief and intense guilt. My approach is nonjudgmental, honest, and practical. I will not shame your sexuality or assume that frequent sexual thoughts or pornography use automatically indicate an addiction. Together, we can distinguish between healthy sexual expression, distress rooted primarily in guilt or cultural expectations, and behavior that has genuinely become compulsive or harmful. Drawing from Adlerian and psychodynamic therapy, we may explore the emotional needs, early experiences, relationship patterns, and unconscious beliefs underlying the behavior. Sexual behavior can sometimes function as a way to manage rejection, insecurity, stress, trauma, or difficulty with intimacy. Understanding what the pattern provides can help you develop healthier ways to meet those needs. I also use CBT to help you identify triggers, challenge all-or-nothing thinking, interrupt habitual cycles, and create realistic strategies for change. Mindfulness can help you notice urges without immediately acting on them. When appropriate, behavioral missions may involve changing routines, reducing access to triggers, practicing emotional regulation, increasing accountability, or building real-world intimacy and connection. If trauma or distressing experiences contribute to the pattern, EMDR may also help reduce their emotional intensity. My goal is not to eliminate your sexuality. It is to help you regain choice, reduce secrecy and shame, strengthen your relationships, and develop sexual behaviors that feel intentional, healthy, and consistent with your values.

Alexandria, Virginia therapist: Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center, licensed professional counselor
Sex/Porn Addiction

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for sexual addiction, compulsive sexual behaviors, pornography addiction, infidelity-related issues, and the relationship trauma that often accompanies these struggles. Sexual addiction can deeply impact trust, emotional intimacy, self-esteem, marriage, family stability, and overall emotional well-being, often creating cycles of secrecy, shame, guilt, anxiety, and disconnection within relationships. Many high-functioning and high-achieving individuals silently struggle with compulsive sexual behaviors while appearing successful professionally or socially. Despite external success, these behaviors can create profound internal conflict, emotional distress, relationship instability, and feelings of isolation or loss of control. Partners often experience betrayal trauma, emotional pain, hypervigilance, and difficulty rebuilding trust after discovering compulsive sexual behaviors or infidelity. Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to sexual addiction counseling, helping clients understand the deeper emotional and psychological factors driving compulsive behaviors. Sexual addiction is often connected to unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, emotional neglect, chronic stress, shame, dissociation, or unhealthy coping patterns developed over time. Therapy focuses not only on behavior change, but on understanding and healing the root causes contributing to the cycle. As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support meaningful and lasting recovery. Treatment focuses on reducing compulsive behaviors, resolving shame and guilt, improving emotional regulation, strengthening self-awareness, and helping clients develop healthier coping strategies and more authentic emotional connections. Brad also works extensively with couples and relationship dynamics impacted by sexual addiction, betrayal trauma, and trust violations. Therapy may include rebuilding communication, restoring emotional safety, establishing healthy boundaries, and repairing trust within the relationship when appropriate. Partners are supported in understanding the impact of betrayal trauma while also creating healthier relational patterns moving forward. Therapy provides a confidential, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients and couples can openly address painful experiences without shame or condemnation. The goal is not simply behavioral control, but deeper emotional healing, restored integrity, healthier relationships, and a renewed sense of self-worth and connection. Healing and recovery are possible. With the right support, individuals and couples can move beyond cycles of addiction, shame, and disconnection to create healthier relationships built on trust, honesty, emotional intimacy, and lasting change. Virtual counseling and online EMDR therapy sessions are available, providing confidential and convenient access to specialized trauma-focused therapy from the comfort and privacy of home.

Las Vegas, Nevada therapist: Gary D. Alexander, marriage and family therapist
Sex/Porn Addiction

Gary D. Alexander

Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MFT, NCC
Sexual and pornography addictions can develop as patterns of behavior that provide temporary relief from stress, loneliness, or difficult emotions, while also leading to secrecy, shame, or strain in relationships. In some instances, these patterns may also begin to affect a person’s professional life and overall well-being. In therapy we explore both the behavior itself and the emotional and relational dynamics that may be sustaining it, recognizing that these patterns can offer important clues about deeper needs or struggles. As understanding deepens and new ways of coping emerge, many people begin to experience greater self-control, increased openness in relationships, and a renewed sense of balance in their lives.

Dayton, Ohio therapist: Kari Carter, life coach
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.

Manhattan, New York therapist: Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk, psychologist
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.

Sex/Porn Addiction

Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l

Psychologist, PhD
Sex and pornography addiction are among the most misunderstood and least talked about struggles people carry. There is so much shame wrapped around it that most people suffer in silence for years before ever telling anyone. If that is you, we want you to know something important: you are not broken, you are not beyond help, and you do not have to be ashamed to walk through our door. Compulsive sexual behavior and pornography addiction are real, recognized conditions that affect people across all walks of life, including high-functioning professionals, devoted partners, and dedicated service members who would never want anyone to know. The secrecy itself becomes part of the cycle, and breaking that cycle starts with finding a safe place to be honest. At CCW International, we provide a judgment-free space to explore what is driving the compulsive behavior, how it is affecting your relationships and your sense of self, and what recovery actually looks like for you. We use evidence-based approaches to help you understand the underlying patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and rebuild trust in yourself and your relationships. Asking for help with this takes extraordinary courage. We honor that courage, and we are ready to meet you with compassion, not judgment. You took the hardest step by reaching out. We will take it from here.
