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, 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 want the natural chemical high that the brain and body create as a result of orgasm, 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, 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. Ongoing support after the session(s) will be available.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Sexual addiction thrives in secrecy and shame—the excessive masturbation, pornography use, soliciting sex, or compulsive behaviors that leave you feeling out of control, anxious, guilty, and deeply alone. You're not morally weak or perverted; beneath the addiction lies unresolved trauma that you never learned to process or express. Together, we'll create a shame-free space to explore what's really driving the compulsions: the pain you're medicating, the intimacy you're avoiding, the wounds that sex became a bandage for. You'll learn healthier ways to manage urges, understand your triggers, and heal the trauma underneath. Freedom from the cycle is possible through compassion, not condemnation.
