Yorba Linda, California therapist: New Beginnings Christian Counseling, marriage and family therapist
Sex and Porn Addiction

New Beginnings Christian Counseling

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Struggling with sex or porn addiction can feel isolating, shame-filled, and disruptive to relationships, self-esteem, and spiritual life. In therapy, we provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore the underlying causes of addictive behaviors—often rooted in trauma, attachment wounds, or emotional struggles—and develop practical strategies for recovery. With Christ-centered guidance, clients learn to establish healthy boundaries, rebuild intimacy, restore self-worth, and cultivate emotional and spiritual healing, moving toward freedom, accountability, and lasting transformation.

Compulsive sexual behaviors or pornography use can feel difficult to control and may impact your relationships, self image, and daily life.

The goal is to help you regain a sense of control and develop a more balanced relationship with yourself and others.

Compulsive sexual behaviors often serve as a way to manage stress, disconnection, or difficult emotions. I work with individuals to understand the underlying patterns driving these behaviors, rather than only focusing on stopping them. Through this work, clients develop greater awareness, stronger boundaries, and more intentional ways of relating to themselves and others.

Long Beach, California therapist: Luis Maimoni, marriage and family therapist
Sex and Porn Addiction

Luis Maimoni

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Sex addiction is something that is frequently discussed in the media, but there is no "official diagnosis" for it in the DSM-5, our diagnostic manual. Some say this is because there is insufficient research on the topic. The clients I've met with who have believed themselves to be "sex addicts" were actually using sex to cope with another issue. Once the other issue was identified and treated, the need to engage in the unhelpful sexual coping activity was greatly reduced. I can't promise you the same result, but I can promise to treat you respect as we work together to understand what is driving the behavior you are seeking to reduce.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy, licensed professional counselor
Sex and Porn Addiction

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Problematic sexual behaviors — including compulsive porn use — are rarely about sex itself. They are most often about pain, disconnection, shame, or a nervous system looking for relief. I work from a harm reduction, client-centered approach using CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-focused methods to understand what's underneath the behavior and actually address it. I do not work from a twelve-step or "sex addiction" framework — not because I dismiss your struggle, but because shame-based models tend to create more of the very thing driving the behavior in the first place. You are not broken. Let's figure out what's actually going on.

Anaheim is home to Disneyland and the tourism infrastructure surrounding it, creating an unusual occupational landscape — a large hospitality workforce experiencing the psychological pressures of service work, seasonal employment, and the gap between the 'happiest place on earth' and the economic realities many workers face. The city has a large Latino population concentrated in the flatlands west of the resort district, and bilingual Spanish-English therapists play an important access role for families where cultural and language barriers limit engagement with mainstream mental health services. CHOC Children's and Kaiser Permanente serve institutional mental health needs in the area, alongside a private practice community serving the newer residential areas. Anaheim's significant Vietnamese and Korean communities in its northeastern neighborhoods also drive demand for multilingual and culturally affirming therapists.
