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
Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Do you feel you or your partner are a sex addict? Maybe, however not all sex behaviors constitute a sexual addiction, and sometimes the sex behaviors may be a manifestation of a different problem. Regardless of an addiction or not, I can help address these issues by identifying the triggers, mange impulses and urges, find healthy ways of changing the behaviors. Further, we will explore any deeper reasons behind the behaviors and address any underlying psychological or emotional issues that may contribute to sexual issues.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
With addiction to sex or pornography, the person feels like they cannot quit, or if they have tried to on their own, find they keep going back to the addiction. Sex addiction is often really about connection to other people, while trying to find one's self-worth by sexually connecting to others. It also has roots in a person trying to feel accepted/ acceptable, based on an addict's deep-seated belief that most do not accept themselves. Sex and porn addicts want the natural chemical high that the brain and body create as a result of orgasm, using it to move toward pleasure and move away from pain, to numb other underlying emotions, or to feel like they are 'enough'. They must ask themselves, "What am I trying to numb or avoid or fulfill with the addiction?" Rapid Transformational Therapy can help change the core negative beliefs that a person has unconsciously formed about themselves, and as they get identified and addressed, they can be interrupted and removed. New, healthy, empowering beliefs of being/ feeling enough, etc, are put in their place, resulting in the elimination of the underlying need for the addiction at the subconscious level. Ongoing support after the session(s) will be available.

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.
