Christopher Cannon
Counsellor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
Compulsive porn use or sexual behavior often carries a lot of shame, which tends to make the cycle worse. I approach this work without judgment, looking at how these behaviors help regulate stress, loneliness, or numbness. Together we build awareness of the urges as they arise in the body and develop other ways to meet those needs, while repairing trust in your relationships if that’s part of your goal.

Bipolar Disorder Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Greg Rennie has over 10 years experience working as an addiction specialist in top addiction treatment centres in Ontario, Canada. He utilizes the same approaches as "rehabs" do but in an outpatient, one to one environment. I have helped many clients overcome their sex and/or porn addiction. Greg is in recovery himself (30 years) and has been challenged with the why of addiction and why we use an external means to escape from our core issues. Contact him at greg@bipolar-addiction.com.

I help clients facing sexual addiction, compulsion, sexual anorexia, pornography addiction or overuse, abuse, and relationship struggles.
