Sex/Porn Addiction
Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I help individuals explore the triggers and underlying factors contributing to their sex addiction. This may involve examining psychological, emotional, relational, and environmental factors that drive compulsive sexual behaviors, such as unresolved trauma, emotional dysregulation, low self-esteem, intimacy issues, or maladaptive coping mechanisms. Through insight-oriented therapy, I support individuals in identifying and addressing the root causes of their addiction.

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.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
Struggles regarding sex are often less about desire itself and more about what those behaviors are asked to hold in your psychic world. In psychoanalytic work, we become curious about the emotional life, unmet longings, and unspoken conflicts that may be shaping patterns around sex and intimacy. Over time, this process can support greater freedom, choice, and a more integrated relationship to desire, one that feels intentional rather than driven.

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.

Universal City is the entertainment enclave around Universal Studios in the Cahuenga Pass, where theme-park, production, and hospitality workers power one of LA's signature destinations. Mental health needs follow the industry — precarious creative and service employment, irregular hours, and the gap between glamour and paycheck reality. The surrounding LA therapy market, including entertainment-specialized practitioners in the Valley and Hollywood, serves the workforce.
