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.

Sexual addiction can feel isolating and overwhelming, but recovery is absolutely possible. If you’re struggling with compulsive sexual behaviors or patterns that feel out of control, let's work together to help you break free from these cycles and reclaim healthy sexual freedom.
The first step in working with sexual addiction, is understanding that there is nothing inherently wrong with you and your body. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we’ll explore the root causes of your struggle, and unlock healthier ways of being with your sexual energy. My approach focuses on healing, accountability, and self-compassion, helping you find a new sense of balance and regain control over your choices.
You don’t have to face this alone. Let’s take the first step toward healing and creating a healthier, more fulfilling future.
