Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Compulsive sexual behaviors and pornography use can quietly erode self-respect, intimacy, and trust — and the shame surrounding them often makes it harder to reach out for help. At Restored, our therapists provide a nonjudgmental, trauma-informed space to explore what's driving these patterns and begin genuine healing. We recognize that compulsive sexual behavior is rarely just about sex — and we treat it with the depth and care it requires.

Cynthia A. Criss
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LPCC, CSAT
Sex addiction is a valid and important specialty within counseling, focusing on helping individuals who struggle with compulsive sexual behaviors that interfere with their relationships, work, or personal well-being. It is often viewed through the lens of a behavioral addiction, where the individual becomes preoccupied with sexual thoughts or actions in ways that are harmful or out of control.
Counseling for sex addiction may involve several therapeutic techniques, including:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This helps clients identify and challenge unhealthy thought patterns that contribute to their compulsive sexual behavior. CBT can help clients recognize triggers, develop coping strategies, and work on changing behaviors.
Trauma-Informed Therapy: Many individuals with sex addiction have experienced past trauma, such as sexual abuse or neglect, which may have contributed to their addiction. Trauma-informed therapy can provide a safe space to address these underlying issues.
12-Step Programs: Support groups like Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) or Sexaholics Anonymous (SA) can be a valuable part of recovery. These programs encourage community support and accountability as part of the healing process.
Psychodynamic Therapy: This approach may help uncover unconscious emotional conflicts or early life experiences that are driving addictive behaviors. Understanding these issues can help individuals process them and reduce the compulsion to act out.
Mindfulness and Stress Reduction: Developing healthy coping strategies, including mindfulness techniques, can help individuals better manage stress, anxiety, or emotional distress that might trigger the addictive behavior.
Counselors specializing in sex addiction often work with individuals, couples, or groups and may collaborate with medical professionals when necessary, especially if there are co-occurring issues such as depression, anxiety, or substance abuse.
Cynthia has a strong understanding of addiction, compassion for those struggling with the issue, and the ability to create a safe, non-judgmental environment for healing.

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.
