Sex/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.

David Sudyka

Compulsive sexual behaviors or pornography use can feel difficult to control and may impact your relationships, self image, and daily life. You may feel shame or frustration about patterns that are hard to change. In therapy we will focus on understanding what is driving these behaviors and building healthier ways to cope and connect. The goal is to help you regain a sense of control and develop a more balanced relationship with yourself and others.
