Sex/Porn Addiction
Carl Malmsten

Sex/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.

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.

The Okanagan is British Columbia's lake-and-vineyard interior region, anchored by Kelowna and including Vernon, Penticton, and a string of lakeside communities that mix agriculture, wine tourism, and tech growth in one of Canada's most popular retirement destinations. The region's mental health picture includes seasonal tourism economy stress, wildfire and smoke-season anxiety after repeated severe fire years, and the isolation some newcomers and retirees feel after relocating. Therapy access centres on Kelowna's growing practitioner community, with Interior Health providing public services and telehealth extending reach across the valley's smaller communities.
