Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Concerns around pornography use and sexual behaviors are often accompanied by shame, secrecy, and self-judgment. I take a non-pathologizing, destigmatizing approach, recognizing that these patterns are often meaningful attempts to cope or address unmet needs. Rather than focusing on labels, we work to understand the underlying dynamics and explore fulfilling, sustainable ways of relating to yourself and others.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Struggles with sex or pornography can feel isolating, especially when they’re tied to shame, secrecy, or a sense of being out of control. In therapy, we approach this with curiosity rather than judgment—exploring what these behaviors may be serving, whether it’s coping with stress, loneliness, anxiety, or unmet emotional needs. Together, we’ll work to understand the patterns, reduce the sense of compulsion, and build healthier ways of relating to yourself, your sexuality, and your relationships—so that your choices feel more intentional and aligned with your values.

Kari Carter
Life Coach, APSATS certified, ACC, CPC, ADOH
The impact of sex and porn addiction on a partner is profound and often traumatic. Discovery can lead to shock, hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, body image struggles, and a deep rupture of emotional safety. My work focuses specifically on supporting the betrayed partner - not treating the addiction itself, but addressing the trauma response that follows it.
Using a partner-sensitive, trauma-informed model, I help clients stabilize their nervous system, establish protective boundaries, process betrayal wounds, and regain clarity about their next steps. Partners deserve support that validate the harm experienced rather than minimizing it or pathologizing their response.
Living alongside sex or porn addiction can leave you feeling unseen, unsafe, and questioning your worth. I specialize in supporting partners as they navigate the trauma of addiction-related betrayal, helping them move from chaos and confusion toward strength, clarity, and empowered decision-making.
