Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
At Nightingale Counselling, we take a non-judgmental, sex-positive approach to exploring the relationship between pornography use and depression, recognizing that for many people the two are deeply intertwined in ways that are complex, personal, and rarely straightforward. We understand that pornography can function as a genuinely useful coping tool for depression while simultaneously contributing to feelings of shame, isolation, compulsivity, and disconnection that deepen it, and untangling that relationship requires careful, collaborative exploration rather than blanket judgment. Our therapists work with each client to understand their own unique experience of pornography and depression, identifying where change might be meaningful and how to build healthier coping strategies, a more grounded sense of self, and a more honest relationship with intimacy and connection.

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.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Sexual addiction thrives in secrecy and shame—the excessive masturbation, pornography use, soliciting sex, or compulsive behaviors that leave you feeling out of control, anxious, guilty, and deeply alone. You're not morally weak or perverted; beneath the addiction lies unresolved trauma that you never learned to process or express. Together, we'll create a shame-free space to explore what's really driving the compulsions: the pain you're medicating, the intimacy you're avoiding, the wounds that sex became a bandage for. You'll learn healthier ways to manage urges, understand your triggers, and heal the trauma underneath. Freedom from the cycle is possible through compassion, not condemnation.
