Sex/Porn Addiction
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Sexual addiction can filter into creating a range of other life difficulties and complications including health and relationship issues. Ultimately this creates a feeling of overwhelm and secretive isolation, which is devastating to your happiness and how you feel about yourself.
My aim is to assist you with your sexual addiction which are creating your life difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Addiction to pornography and/or sex can get in the way of leading a full life. This behaviour can sometimes be a symptom of something missing or an unmet need. Through relational therapy I help to bring the unconscious into conscious awareness so my clients are empowered to understand their patterns and get to place where they are able to experiment with changes to those habits.

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor

Sex and porn addiction are loaded and heavy words, that in the public arena can carry shame and guilt. In my work with you, there is no shame or guilt attributed to you sex and porn addiction. However, the addiction is a manifestation of something deeper in your life. I will work with you to jointly explore the unique nature of your addiction and how it helps you deal with your life. This becomes an exploration of the deeper meaning, from where you have awareness of potentially new choices. I invite you to give me call and we can discuss your unique situation.
