Sex and 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.

Comox Valley, British Columbia therapist: Julie Taylor Counselling, counselor/therapist
Sex and Porn Addiction

Julie Taylor Counselling

Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
Sexual addiction, like all addictions, is driven by the psyche which is trying to salve a troublesome problem that we may not even be aware of and is trying to help us to survive. However as with any addiction, sexual addiction hijacks us and we need to get back in control of our own lives and destinies. Once we determine and understand why this addiction exists, we can start to process it and loosen its grip on us.

Vancouver, British Columbia therapist: Nightingale Counselling, counselor/therapist
Sex and Porn Addiction

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.

Sexual addiction starts some place else and meets a variety of needs. Understanding how it started, what it serves goes a long way to shifting it into something you wish it to be, an enjoyment vs. an addiction.

Sex and Porn Addiction

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy

Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
The language of addiction gets applied to sexual behaviour in ways that don't always fit, and the shame that comes with it can make things worse before they get better. I work with clients who feel out of control around sex or pornography, without assuming what that means for them morally or what recovery has to look like. We look at what's driving it, what it's doing for you, and what you actually want your life to feel like.
