Chris 'Bucky' Bateman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Pornography and sexual compulsivity can quietly devastate relationships and erode a person's sense of self. We provide compassionate, non-shaming support for individuals and couples navigating the impact of porn addiction helping clients understand what drives the behavior, rebuild trust with their partner, and develop healthier patterns of intimacy and connection.

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.

True You Ministries | Stacy Echeverria Co-Founder
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Pastoral Counselor
Sex and pornography addiction can create painful cycles of secrecy, shame, and behaviors that conflict with your faith, values, and relationships. I provide compassionate, Christ-centered support to help uncover the emotional wounds, beliefs, triggers, and coping patterns beneath these behaviors. Together, we focus on breaking unhealthy cycles, developing healthier ways of responding, rebuilding integrity, and moving toward lasting recovery and greater freedom—without shame or condemnation.
