Nicholas Breitenbach
Psychologist, R. Psych, CST, MA, BA
I help clients who feel stuck in patterns of compulsive sexual behaviour (often called “sex addiction”) that are causing distress, secrecy, shame, or harm to relationships. Therapy is a judgment-free space to understand what’s driving the behaviour—stress, trauma, loneliness, anxiety, unmet needs—and to build practical tools for impulse control, healthier coping, and honest accountability. Whether it involves pornography, affairs, or other behaviours that feel out of control, we’ll focus on reducing shame, rebuilding self-trust, and creating a sex life that’s aligned with your values instead of driven by urgency.

Carl Malmsten
Therapist, MA, RCC, Rhyp
Sexual behaviors that feel compulsive or out of control are often linked to deeper emotional needs, pain, or isolation. I offer a non-shaming, structured space to explore the roots, restore integrity, and rebuild connection — with yourself and others.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Sex is not inherently addictive. Just because you might like sex and sexual activity does not mean your addicted to it. Men and women who have developed a sexual addiction are caught up in repetitive activities that do not fulfill their needs and negatively impact their relationships, jobs and health. There are things you can do to change your relationship to your sexuality so that you can get the enjoyment you want from all areas of your life.

Wayne Dewhurst
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CAMFT
Sex and pornography addiction can create secrecy, hurt, distance, and a significant loss of trust between partners. Wayne works with couples affected by compulsive sexual behaviour or pornography use, helping them address the impact on the relationship, rebuild honesty and connection, and work toward healthier patterns.

Christopher Cannon
Counsellor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
Compulsive porn use or sexual behavior often carries a lot of shame, which tends to make the cycle worse. I approach this work without judgment, looking at how these behaviors help regulate stress, loneliness, or numbness. Together we build awareness of the urges as they arise in the body and develop other ways to meet those needs, while repairing trust in your relationships if that’s part of your goal.
