Sex/Porn Addiction
Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
Sex and pornography addiction are among the most misunderstood and least talked about struggles people carry. There is so much shame wrapped around it that most people suffer in silence for years before ever telling anyone. If that is you, we want you to know something important: you are not broken, you are not beyond help, and you do not have to be ashamed to walk through our door.
Compulsive sexual behavior and pornography addiction are real, recognized conditions that affect people across all walks of life, including high-functioning professionals, devoted partners, and dedicated service members who would never want anyone to know. The secrecy itself becomes part of the cycle, and breaking that cycle starts with finding a safe place to be honest.
At CCW International, we provide a judgment-free space to explore what is driving the compulsive behavior, how it is affecting your relationships and your sense of self, and what recovery actually looks like for you. We use evidence-based approaches to help you understand the underlying patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and rebuild trust in yourself and your relationships.
Asking for help with this takes extraordinary courage. We honor that courage, and we are ready to meet you with compassion, not judgment.
You took the hardest step by reaching out. We will take it from here.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Center for Authentic Life & Relationship, LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LMFT, CPCS, CSAT-S, CAADC, EMDR, CSTOP-Candidate
As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) with more than 20 years of experience, I help individuals struggling with compulsive sexual behavior, pornography use, secrecy, shame, and the consequences these patterns can create in their lives and relationships. I also work with partners who have experienced betrayal trauma as a result of hidden sexual activity, helping them process the pain, confusion, anger, and loss of trust that often follow discovery. My approach is compassionate, direct, and recovery-focused. I help clients move toward honesty, accountability, emotional healing, healthier boundaries, and meaningful repair—whether the goal is personal recovery, relational healing, or both.

Sex/Porn Addiction
Guy J Iacono
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Compulsive sexual behavior and pornography use are among the most difficult things for people to talk about openly, and for that reason they often go unaddressed far longer than they should. What frequently begins as a private outlet gradually becomes something harder to control, something that takes up more time and mental energy than intended, and something that starts to affect relationships, self-image, and daily functioning in ways that are difficult to ignore.
For many men, the shame around these patterns runs deeper than the behavior itself. That shame tends to drive more secrecy, more isolation, and more of the same behavior. It is a cycle that willpower alone rarely breaks. Compulsive sexual behavior and pornography use are not moral failures. They are patterns with identifiable psychological roots, often connected to stress, anxiety, loneliness, avoidance, or a need for relief from something that feels unmanageable. Understanding what is driving the behavior is the first step toward actually changing it.
In our work together, we address the cycle honestly and without judgment. That means looking at what is fueling the behavior, what it is providing, and what it is costing. We build concrete strategies for managing urges, develop healthier patterns for coping with stress and emotion, and work on repairing the trust and intimacy that these patterns tend to erode over time.
My approach is direct, confidential, and grounded in over a decade of clinical experience working with men navigating complex behavioral patterns. You do not have to have this figured out before you reach out.
If this is something you have been managing alone and are ready to address, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Dr. Mitchell Roth
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
For most, sex is satisfying and builds feelings of intimacy. For some it has become pathological. For the latter the problem needs to be treated like any other addiction.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Matters of intimacy can be physical in nature that, in some ways, connect with our emotional lives and can become more complicated as we grow into our relationships with others.
