Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
Like substances or devices, sex and porn are addictive. Pornography is an onslaught of visual stimuli to a body that hasn't evolved to deal with that much stimuli. Sex can be used as a validating distraction to undercurrents of trauma, self-hatred and negative beliefs.
In addressing addictions, I draw upon physiology and neurobiology to understand how it happens and how it can be overcome. Acknowledging the addiction and the role it is playing in your life is often the first step in addressing what lies underneath it: for example, depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma. I then use my integrative psychotherapy approach to collaborate with you in a unique treatment approach that fits your exact needs.

Townsville is the largest city in tropical North Queensland — a military, agricultural, and mining hub built around Lavarack Barracks (home to the Army's 3rd Brigade), James Cook University, and a regional healthcare system serving a vast geographic area. The city's significant Australian Army presence creates therapy demand from military families navigating deployment stress and the emotional challenges of service life, while the broader civilian population navigates the economic cycles of mining and agriculture. Townsville University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while James Cook University's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local and regional community. Townsville's tropical climate and geographic isolation — it is the largest city between Brisbane and Darwin — mean therapists serve clients from a very wide catchment, and telehealth plays an important role in extending care across North Queensland.
