Sex/Porn Addiction
Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
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.

Sex/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.

Sex/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.
