Sex/Porn Addiction
Roland Achtau
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCADC, ICGC-1, CSAT Candidate
Sexual addiction is as real as other addictions in the sense that one can experience craving, tolerance, and withdrawal. Understanding the ramifications of sexual addiction and how it can affect ones health, relationships, and psychological well-being, my practice offers holistic services to assist those wrestling with sexual addiction to achieve victory.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Institute for Personal Growth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Like substance abuse and gambling, sexually compulsive behavior—commonly referred to as "sex addiction"—can be equally devastating and challenging to overcome. It can take many forms, including pornography addiction, excessive sexual activity, and others. We have several therapists who specialize not only in sex therapy but also in sexually compulsive behavior, a specialty that many clinicians have limited experience with.

James Foley Sexual Misbehavior, Infidelity , Expert 31 Years Experience
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, SOTS,
I help persons with what some persons describe as "Sexual Addiction". I help persons who have crossed some consequence creating boundary with their sexual behavior.
An example might be breaking professional boundaries and having sexual contact with a client. It could be sexually harassing or interacting with a work subordinate. Sending porn or "dick pics" to persons who it would create consequences for you doing so could also be an example. Getting yourself humiliated by being extorted for paid sexual services or sexually interacting with persons online would be another example.
I have seen almost all possible examples of persons making real world consequences for themselves with sexual misbehavior.
There is almost nothing in their realm I have not seen a great many times over.
I have a fantastic record of success in helping persons learn how to think and act in ways which remove these misbehaviors from their life.

Sex/Porn Addiction
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.

Paterson is one of New Jersey's largest and most ethnically diverse cities, a former industrial hub whose silk-milling heritage has given way to a dense and vibrant immigrant community spanning Dominican, Puerto Rican, Colombian, Bangladeshi, and Middle Eastern populations, with mental health needs that are correspondingly multilingual and cross-cultural. The city has a high poverty rate and limited private therapy infrastructure, and the demand for multilingual, culturally competent care—particularly in Spanish and Arabic—significantly outpaces the available supply. St. Joseph's University Medical Center in Paterson provides behavioral health services, and community organizations supplement what is a largely under-resourced formal mental health system. Common therapy concerns include immigration and refugee trauma, family stress, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of maintaining cultural identity and community cohesion across generations in a rapidly changing urban landscape.
