As with any addiction, sexual addiction is about behavior change and recognizing why the addiction started, what it does for you, and ultimately skills and tools to change the behavior.

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.

Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
Using guided meditation and hypnotherapy, we work together to understand the underlying patterns and trauma that lead you to sexually compulsive behavior. I help you understand and heal what is underneath this destructive behavior. We tap into your own inner wisdom and intuition as a resource for healing and charting a healthy sexual expression for a more fulfilling and productive life.
