Sex/Porn Addiction
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.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are struggling with sex or pornography addiction, you may feel caught in a cycle that brings temporary relief but leaves you with guilt, secrecy, or shame. You may have tried to stop on your own, only to find the urges returning under stress, loneliness, or emotional overwhelm. Over time, these patterns can affect your relationships, integrity, and self-control.
At Selah Counselling, we approach sexual addiction with clarity, structure, and compassion. We understand that these behaviours are often linked to unmet emotional needs, trauma, attachment wounds, or nervous system dysregulation rather than simply desire. Together, we identify triggers, strengthen accountability, build distress tolerance skills, and address the underlying drivers of the behaviour. When relationships have been affected, we also support repair and rebuilding trust where appropriate. Our goal is not shame-based change, but sustainable freedom that restores integrity, connection, and steadiness over time.
