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
Jacob Hamlin
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed., LMFT, CST
I work with clients who feel caught in patterns of compulsive sexual behavior, pornography use, secrecy, guilt, relapse, or conflict between sexual behavior and personal values. Rather than leading with shame or moral panic, I help clients understand the emotional and relational functions these behaviors may be serving. The goal is not simply behavior control, but greater honesty, accountability, self-understanding, and choice. Therapy may include exploring triggers, attachment needs, loneliness, stress, fantasy, avoidance, spirituality, boundaries, and repair in relationships impacted by secrecy or betrayal.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Asher Lipner
Psychologist, Ph.D., SRT
Many people struggling with pornography or compulsive sexual behavior feel trapped in cycles of secrecy, guilt, shame, and repeated attempts to “just stop.” I help clients understand the emotional, relational, and behavioral patterns driving these struggles while developing healthier coping strategies, greater emotional awareness, and stronger self-leadership. My approach combines psychodynamic therapy, behavioral strategies, trauma-informed work, and principles from 12-step recovery to support meaningful and lasting change.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address sexual addiction with a compassionate and faith-based approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healing and restoration. Recognizing the complexities of sexual addiction, I create a safe and non-judgmental space that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's grace and forgiveness. Combining evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a spiritual focus, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of addictive behaviors and develop strategies for recovery. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and a commitment to biblical principles of purity, I assist individuals in breaking free from the cycle of addiction. This integrated approach aims to support individuals in their journey toward sexual health, personal growth, and a deeper connection with their faith within the context of Christian values.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for sexual addiction, compulsive sexual behaviors, pornography addiction, infidelity-related issues, and the relationship trauma that often accompanies these struggles. Sexual addiction can deeply impact trust, emotional intimacy, self-esteem, marriage, family stability, and overall emotional well-being, often creating cycles of secrecy, shame, guilt, anxiety, and disconnection within relationships.
Many high-functioning and high-achieving individuals silently struggle with compulsive sexual behaviors while appearing successful professionally or socially. Despite external success, these behaviors can create profound internal conflict, emotional distress, relationship instability, and feelings of isolation or loss of control. Partners often experience betrayal trauma, emotional pain, hypervigilance, and difficulty rebuilding trust after discovering compulsive sexual behaviors or infidelity.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to sexual addiction counseling, helping clients understand the deeper emotional and psychological factors driving compulsive behaviors. Sexual addiction is often connected to unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, emotional neglect, chronic stress, shame, dissociation, or unhealthy coping patterns developed over time. Therapy focuses not only on behavior change, but on understanding and healing the root causes contributing to the cycle.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support meaningful and lasting recovery. Treatment focuses on reducing compulsive behaviors, resolving shame and guilt, improving emotional regulation, strengthening self-awareness, and helping clients develop healthier coping strategies and more authentic emotional connections.
Brad also works extensively with couples and relationship dynamics impacted by sexual addiction, betrayal trauma, and trust violations. Therapy may include rebuilding communication, restoring emotional safety, establishing healthy boundaries, and repairing trust within the relationship when appropriate. Partners are supported in understanding the impact of betrayal trauma while also creating healthier relational patterns moving forward.
Therapy provides a confidential, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients and couples can openly address painful experiences without shame or condemnation. The goal is not simply behavioral control, but deeper emotional healing, restored integrity, healthier relationships, and a renewed sense of self-worth and connection.
Healing and recovery are possible. With the right support, individuals and couples can move beyond cycles of addiction, shame, and disconnection to create healthier relationships built on trust, honesty, emotional intimacy, and lasting change.
Virtual counseling and online EMDR therapy sessions are available, providing confidential and convenient access to specialized trauma-focused therapy from the comfort and privacy of home.
