Sex/Porn Addiction
Chananya Abraham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, MS, LPC
I work with individuals struggling with sex and pornography addiction by helping them understand the emotional, relational, and behavioral cycles that maintain the behavior. Together, we focus on strengthening impulse control, developing healthier coping strategies, addressing underlying loneliness, shame, or trauma, and rebuilding integrity and trust. My goal is to support sustainable recovery and the development of a more disciplined, honest, and values-driven life.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Alistair Highet
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LP, NCPsyA
Pornography and technology have entered our lives with an intensity we could not have anticipated, and for which we were not equipped. We are searching for something life-enhancing, but go chasing down a dark tunnel that leads us to despair. We don't have to judge that. We can understand it, both personally and in relation to our culture as a whole. I can help you bring this searching back into perspective, to something human and manageable.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Sexual addiction can feel overwhelming and isolating, often rooted in emotional pain or unresolved trauma. Whether you're actively struggling or in recovery, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore the patterns behind compulsive behaviors. Together, we’ll work on building healthier coping strategies, restoring control, and addressing the emotional and relational impacts. Using evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and relapse prevention, my goal is to support lasting healing and personal growth. Recovery is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have found that people who are addicted to sex need to understand the function the addiction is playing in their life. With this knowledge, the individual can better address their problems and desires. I also teach people skills for unconditionally accepting themselves as shame and self-downing will not help them overcome their issues in this sphere of life. Finally, I teach people how to cope with sexual urges that will get them into trouble and how to live meaningful lives.

Hartford is Connecticut's state capital and one of the country's starkest examples of urban poverty in a wealthy state—historically the insurance capital of America, it now has some of the highest poverty rates in the northeast, with a predominantly Black and Puerto Rican population that has been disproportionately affected by decades of disinvestment. Spanish-language therapy is essential in Hartford, where a large Puerto Rican community makes up a significant proportion of the population, and bilingual practitioners who understand the cultural dimensions of Puerto Rican mental health experience are in significant demand. Hartford Hospital's Institute of Living—one of America's oldest psychiatric hospitals, founded in 1822—provides important behavioral health resources to the community. Common therapy concerns include poverty-related trauma, systemic inequality and racial stress, immigration and diaspora identity, anxiety, depression, and the compounding challenges of significant unmet mental health need in the capital of a prosperous state.
