Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Compulsive sexual behaviours or pornography use can create distress, secrecy, shame, and conflict with your values or relationships. Therapy can help you understand the emotional patterns, triggers, avoidance cycles, and unmet needs that may be connected to these behaviours. My approach is non-shaming, reflective, and focused on helping you regain choice and integrity.

Registered Psychotherapist, CRPO #21389
When porn starts to feel less like a choice and more like a reflex, shame usually makes it harder to change. We’ll look at what drives the urge, build a plan on your terms, and work toward the relationship with sex and intimacy you actually want.

Chris Pankewich, Registered Psychotherapist – Toronto Therapy for Anxiety, Addiction, Relationships & Men’s Emotional Resilience
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Masters of Counselling Psychology (MACP)
Addiction to sexual behaviours and compulsions can feel overwhelming, particularly when that loss of control leads to decisions that involve risking losing the things we truly care about. There is not an agreed upon clinical definition of sexual addiction, but it tends to feel compulsive, excessive and hard to stop despite being aware of the consequences. It is not necessarily the specific behaviours that define the addiction, but how those behaviours leave us feeling. Many people suffer from sexual addiction and the associated shame and guilt that tends to follow. There are some proven strategies to explore the deeper causes of these behaviours and work towards changing them. Most imporantly, a commitment to working on them leads many to learn that they are not alone on this journey.
