Sex and Porn Addiction
Cynthia A. Criss
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LPCC, CSAT
Sex addiction is a valid and important specialty within counseling, focusing on helping individuals who struggle with compulsive sexual behaviors that interfere with their relationships, work, or personal well-being. It is often viewed through the lens of a behavioral addiction, where the individual becomes preoccupied with sexual thoughts or actions in ways that are harmful or out of control.
Counseling for sex addiction may involve several therapeutic techniques, including:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This helps clients identify and challenge unhealthy thought patterns that contribute to their compulsive sexual behavior. CBT can help clients recognize triggers, develop coping strategies, and work on changing behaviors.
Trauma-Informed Therapy: Many individuals with sex addiction have experienced past trauma, such as sexual abuse or neglect, which may have contributed to their addiction. Trauma-informed therapy can provide a safe space to address these underlying issues.
12-Step Programs: Support groups like Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) or Sexaholics Anonymous (SA) can be a valuable part of recovery. These programs encourage community support and accountability as part of the healing process.
Psychodynamic Therapy: This approach may help uncover unconscious emotional conflicts or early life experiences that are driving addictive behaviors. Understanding these issues can help individuals process them and reduce the compulsion to act out.
Mindfulness and Stress Reduction: Developing healthy coping strategies, including mindfulness techniques, can help individuals better manage stress, anxiety, or emotional distress that might trigger the addictive behavior.
Counselors specializing in sex addiction often work with individuals, couples, or groups and may collaborate with medical professionals when necessary, especially if there are co-occurring issues such as depression, anxiety, or substance abuse.
Cynthia has a strong understanding of addiction, compassion for those struggling with the issue, and the ability to create a safe, non-judgmental environment for healing. Cynthia stays informed on the latest research and treatment methods and is Certified in the treatment of Sexual Addiction. .Cynthia has worked with a broad range of clients and has expertise in the treatment of compulsive sexual behaviors which may include pornography addiction, compulsive masturbation, use of prostitutes, escort services, massage parlors, and internet sites. Cybersex can be so powerful that, like alcohol or drugs, it's hard to put down and control. Cynthia also works with spouses or partners affected by a partner's sexual infidelity. She has helped many to work through the betrayal they have experienced while in a relationship with a person who is struggling with being intimate with their primary partner. Cynthia helps persons work through and resolve the trauma they have experienced from discovering that their primary relationship is not what they had thought it was.

Sex and Porn Addiction
Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
When porn use or compulsive sexual behaviors start interfering with your life, relationships, intimacy, or sense of self, shame and secrecy often make it even harder to address. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to understand the function these behaviors serve, explore underlying emotional or relational patterns, and develop healthier ways to experience desire, connection, and pleasure. Whether you come alone or with a partner, we work toward greater freedom, honesty, and the kind of satisfying intimate life you want—without shame or pathologizing normal sexuality.

Sex and Porn Addiction
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in sex and pornography addiction because I am passionate about guiding individuals out of the shadow of shame and toward true intimacy. Compulsive sexual behavior is often rooted in trauma, emotional regulation deficits, or deep-seated shame. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help clients untangle these complex patterns, rebuild trust, and develop healthy coping mechanisms.
