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.

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.

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.
