Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCADC, CHT, 500 RYT
Sex addiction like most addictions is a symptom of avoiding pain and pursuing pleasure to avoid pain. Take a deep dive and liberate yourself from the temptation and desires that are ruining your life.

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.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
I have worked with sex addicts who are addicted to online pornography and other objects and
gadgets like dolls or other paraphernalia. Often deep work in the past can uncover early sexual abuse or other early experiences that have led to the addiction. This can lead to letting go of the
addiction. Please feel free to call for a consultation: 301-229-8000

Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Sex addiction can create a complex web of secrecy, shame, and guilt, disrupting personal relationships and self-image. In my practice, I approach these sensitive issues with understanding and confidentiality, acknowledging the strength it takes to seek help. Through tailored therapy, I provide guidance towards understanding triggers, developing healthier coping mechanisms, and rebuilding a sense of control and self-respect.

Daniel McNulty
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
I have found that integrating various therapeutic modalities with a holistic approach is effective in addressing sexual addiction. Drawing from techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy, I assist clients in identifying triggers, managing impulses, and developing healthier coping strategies. Additionally, I incorporate Attachment-based approaches and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to explore underlying relational patterns and past traumas contributing to addictive behaviors, fostering self-awareness and facilitating healing in the journey towards recovery.
