Sex/Porn Addiction
Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Sex addiction can create a complex web of secrecy, shame, and guilt, disrupting personal relationships and self-image. In my practice, I approach these sensitive issues with understanding and confidentiality, acknowledging the strength it takes to seek help. Through tailored therapy, I provide guidance towards understanding triggers, developing healthier coping mechanisms, and rebuilding a sense of control and self-respect.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
Sex and pornography addiction can be treated using hypnotherapy, which aims to rewire subconscious patterns, reduce urges, and break addiction cycles by focusing on positive habit replacement. How Hypnotherapy Treats Porn/Sex Addiction:Rewiring the Brain: It helps change the brain’s dopamine-driven, rewarding link to pornography, reducing automatic urges.Subconscious Re-programming: Hypnotherapy can uncover and address the root causes of the addiction, including underlying shame or trauma.Behavioral Change: Techniques such as suggestion therapy, visualization, and regression are used to associate negative experiences with porn, while fostering healthier habits.
My clients addicted to sex and porn have been resilient and recovering due to my Dicit Hypnotherapy.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Kari Carter
Life Coach, APSATS certified, ACC, CPC, ADOH
The impact of sex and porn addiction on a partner is profound and often traumatic. Discovery can lead to shock, hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, body image struggles, and a deep rupture of emotional safety. My work focuses specifically on supporting the betrayed partner - not treating the addiction itself, but addressing the trauma response that follows it.
Using a partner-sensitive, trauma-informed model, I help clients stabilize their nervous system, establish protective boundaries, process betrayal wounds, and regain clarity about their next steps. Partners deserve support that validate the harm experienced rather than minimizing it or pathologizing their response.
Living alongside sex or porn addiction can leave you feeling unseen, unsafe, and questioning your worth. I specialize in supporting partners as they navigate the trauma of addiction-related betrayal, helping them move from chaos and confusion toward strength, clarity, and empowered decision-making.
