Sex/Porn Addiction
Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
With addiction to sex or pornography, the person feels like they cannot quit, or if they have tried to on their own, find they keep going back to the addiction. Sex addiction is often really about connection to other people and finding/ seeking approval, while trying to find one's self-worth by sexually connecting to others. It also has roots in a person trying to feel accepted/ acceptable, based on an addict's deep-seated belief that most do not accept themselves. Sex and porn addicts have become dependent on the natural chemical high that the brain and body create, using it to move toward pleasure and move away from pain, to numb other underlying emotions, or to feel like they are enough. They must ask themselves, "What am I trying to numb or avoid or fulfill with the addiction?" Rapid Transformational Therapy can help change the core negative beliefs that a person has unconsciously formed about themselves becauseof their past experiences, and as they get identified and addressed, they can be interrupted and removed. New, healthy, empowering beliefs of being/ feeling enough, etc, are put in their place, resulting in the elimination of the underlying need for the addiction at the subconscious level. Alongside the therapy is taking a look at the lifestyle and social connections of the individual, and providing support to find new healthy habits and meaningful activities to replace the need for the dopamine/ chemical spike. It will involve trading an immediate high for less immediate gratification, learning to handle stresses and emotions that may be triggers, but in doing so will prove to be much more worthwhile and helpful. Compassionate ongoing support after the session(s) will be available.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address sexual addiction with a compassionate and faith-based approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healing and restoration. Recognizing the complexities of sexual addiction, I create a safe and non-judgmental space that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's grace and forgiveness. Combining evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a spiritual focus, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of addictive behaviors and develop strategies for recovery. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and a commitment to biblical principles of purity, I assist individuals in breaking free from the cycle of addiction. This integrated approach aims to support individuals in their journey toward sexual health, personal growth, and a deeper connection with their faith within the context of Christian values.

Asher Lipner
Psychologist, Ph.D., SRT
Many people struggling with pornography or compulsive sexual behavior feel trapped in cycles of secrecy, guilt, shame, and repeated attempts to “just stop.” I help clients understand the emotional, relational, and behavioral patterns driving these struggles while developing healthier coping strategies, greater emotional awareness, and stronger self-leadership. My approach combines psychodynamic therapy, behavioral strategies, trauma-informed work, and principles from 12-step recovery to support meaningful and lasting change.
