Sex/Porn Addiction
Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Compulsive sexual behaviors and pornography use can quietly erode self-respect, intimacy, and trust — and the shame surrounding them often makes it harder to reach out for help. At Restored, our therapists provide a nonjudgmental, trauma-informed space to explore what's driving these patterns and begin genuine healing. We recognize that compulsive sexual behavior is rarely just about sex — and we treat it with the depth and care it requires.

Margaret Light
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CST
As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I take a holistic approach when addressing sex and porn addiction. This means I take the time to fully understand what's driving the behavior so that we can create lasting change, rather than contributing to a cycle of shame, relapse, and secrecy. I want you to know there is no judgement in therapy with me because I understand how difficult it can be to talk about sex and porn addiction. If you're ready to build a life of integrity, honesty, and compassionate accountability, please reach out. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

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.
