Glenn Klein
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC
As with substances and gambling, sexual addictions function to alter consciousness and can lead to negative consequences. Learning other strategies to self-soothe is key to change.

Blair P. Bisher
Treatment Center, NCC, PhD(c), CSAT-c, MS, MHA, PMP
As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist candidate I specialize in helping men understand and overcome sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior. I leverage an 8-session curriculum to define the problem/solution, establish identity, outline the addiction cycle and interventions to stop unwanted behavior, defense mechanisms and ultimately move towards sustainability and maintenance. Group sessions are also available.

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 and finding/ seeking approval, 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 have become dependent on the natural chemical high that the brain and body create, 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 becauseof their past experiences, 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. Alongside the therapy is taking a look at the lifestyle and social connections of the individual, and providing support to find new healthy habits and meaningful activities to replace the need for the dopamine/ chemical spike. It will involve trading an immediate high for less immediate gratification, learning to handle stresses and emotions that may be triggers, but in doing so will prove to be much more worthwhile and helpful. Compassionate ongoing support after the session(s) will be available.
