Sex/Porn Addiction
Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Sex addiction is arguably the biggest thing nobody talks about. Often times it goes unnoticed and therefore unaddressed. Sexual addiction is something that keeps us from the connection we know intrinsically we are made to experience. In our work together I help you get to the root issues that underly your sexual addiction so can experience the love, connection, and peace you are really after.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Sexual Recovery Coach
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CST, CADC-III, CTA-CC
Sexual addiction carries with it a degree of secrecy, and often shame, that other addictions do not have to deal with. The worst part of a sexual addiction for many is the compulsion to do things that are outside their personal value system. When a person behaves in a way that is not congruent with their moral compass, it can create great distress and confusion. My program to treat this addiction is based on proven techniques involving cognitive-behavioral, trauma-centered, and neurological components. Over time we can help you rewire your brain so that these compulsions no longer drive you.

Piyola Derbarseghian- Sex & Relationship Therapist
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
If you feel like your sexual choices are at odds with your values or are causing distress in your life or relationships, you’re not alone. I work with individuals navigating out of control sexual behavior, whether it's compulsive porn use, infidelity, or patterns that feel difficult to stop, to better understand the emotional, relational, and psychological factors involved. Together, we focus on moving beyond shame and building insight, choice, and meaningful change.

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.

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
I offer a confidential space to discuss your behaviors, compulsions, related concerns, and any aspect of yourself that you may either wish to change or hold onto. Let us explore, in an honest and shame-free atmosphere, how you relate to yourself and others through fantasy and the body to understand yourself, your desires, and your needs more deeply. If you are facing legal problems or the dissolution of valued relationships owing to sexual addiction, let us find ways to cope and change, if and when you are ready.

Palmdale is the Antelope Valley's second major city, home to major aerospace assembly and testing facilities — the region builds and tests some of the country's most advanced aircraft — and to a large, diverse commuter population making long daily trips into Los Angeles. Aerospace workforce pressures, commute strain, and high-desert isolation shape local stress, with Latino and Black families making up much of the community and culturally competent care in demand. Regional providers and telehealth are the mainstays of access.
