Sexual Addiction

Sharron Carson

Registered Psychotherapist, RP

Having an addiction is not a sign of weakness or lack of character. In fact, reaching out for help and being open to change takes a great deal of strength. My approach is one of openness and non-judgment. I follow a harm reduction approach meaning that I respect my clients right to set their own goals which will then guide our sessions. I appreciate that not everyone is ready to, nor wants to, work towards full sobriety. Harm reduction is about reducing the negative impact that substance use has on that person’s well-being and life. I strongly believe that any positive change is a success. If you think that my approach would work for you, please book a free consultation.

Sexual Addiction

Chris Pankewich

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.

Sexual addiction is a complex and challenging issue that can significantly impact an individual's life and relationships. At our practice, we offer specialized support and treatment for sexual addiction, recognizing the different types and manifestations it can take. Sexual addiction is characterized by a compulsive and problematic pattern of sexual behaviors that individuals find difficult to control. It can involve a range of behaviors, including excessive pornography use, compulsive masturbation, anonymous sexual encounters, cybersex, and other forms of sexual activity that interfere with daily functioning and well-being. Our therapists are experienced in working with individuals struggling with various types of sexual addiction. We understand that each person's experience is unique, and we approach treatment with empathy, understanding, and a non-judgmental stance. In therapy, we focus on addressing the underlying factors that contribute to sexual addiction, such as trauma, low self-esteem, emotional dysregulation, and relationship difficulties. We provide a safe and confidential space for you to explore your patterns of behavior, triggers, and underlying emotions. Our approach to sexual addiction treatment may incorporate a combination of individual therapy, group therapy, and support groups. We work collaboratively to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs, goals, and challenges. Therapy for sexual addiction aims to help you gain insight into the root causes of your addictive behaviors, develop healthier coping strategies, and establish a balanced and fulfilling life. We provide tools and techniques to manage urges, regulate emotions, improve self-esteem, and cultivate healthier relationships. Additionally, we recognize the importance of a holistic approach to recovery, addressing not only the addictive behaviors but also focusing on overall well-being. This may involve exploring self-care practices, stress management techniques, and enhancing emotional resilience. Our therapists are dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for you to embark on your journey of healing and recovery from sexual addiction. We are committed to helping you regain control over your life, foster healthy relationships, and develop a positive and fulfilling sexuality. You don't have to face sexual addiction alone.

Peter Stathakos

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, BBA, MDiv, MSW, CMAT, CSAT

You thought that you had this under control but you find yourself beginning to act out of character - watching porn at work, reaching out to others in ways you know would hurt your loved ones, you developed a ritual or start pre-planning your next sexual opportunity. This is a life that is spinning out of control. Consider all the devastation once you get caught! All the lies will be discovered. Even when you are telling the truth you will be doubted. Sex addiction is typically treated over 3 to 5 years, with 98 individual sessions and about 400 12-step meetings. With my expertise and certifications, I typically average 2 years depending on your situation. Aside from my Certified Sex Addiction Therapist title, I have many years of experience rehabilitating pedophiles, currently with zero parole violations. Reach out today to book an intro-call to get the effective, caring and high-quality care you deserve.
