Abbrielle Schenck
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-Associate
Problematic sexual behaviors, including pornography use, are often misunderstood as a lack of willpower, when they are usually rooted in deeper emotional needs, attachment wounds, and coping patterns. For many clients, these behaviors begin to interfere with intimacy, trust, and emotional connection in their current relationships or marriages. I help clients explore what these patterns are communicating and how to build healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. My work focuses on accountability, emotional awareness, and sustainable change rather than shame-based control.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Sexual addiction can feel overwhelming and isolating, often rooted in emotional pain or unresolved trauma. Whether you're actively struggling or in recovery, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore the patterns behind compulsive behaviors. Together, we’ll work on building healthier coping strategies, restoring control, and addressing the emotional and relational impacts. Using evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and relapse prevention, my goal is to support lasting healing and personal growth. Recovery is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with sex addiction or problematic porn use and the impact these behaviors have on trust, intimacy, and self respect. Out of control sexual behavior can feel confusing, isolating, and deeply shame inducing, especially when it conflicts with your values or causes harm to relationships you care about.
As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, I help clients understand how these patterns develop and what maintains them. Our work focuses on identifying triggers, emotional needs, and coping strategies, while also building healthier ways to manage stress, desire, and connection. Recovery is not about punishment or rigid control. It is about increasing awareness, accountability, and choice.
When sexual behavior has affected a relationship, I also work with partners to address betrayal, rebuild trust, and establish clearer boundaries. Whether you are seeking help individually or as a couple, therapy offers a structured and supportive space to reduce shame, interrupt destructive cycles, and move toward healthier sexuality and more honest connection.

Michael J. Salas
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD, LPC-S, LCDC, CSAT, CST
If your sexual behavior feels out of control, secretive, or like it's hurting your relationship, you may be wondering if you're dealing with a sex addiction—or something else entirely. You don’t need to have all the answers to begin getting help. Whether you identify with the label “sex addiction” or not, I work with people who feel stuck in patterns that no longer feel healthy or aligned with who they want to be.
As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and Certified Sex Therapist, I help individuals and couples navigate compulsive sexual behavior, including pornography use, affairs, cybersex, or other forms of acting out. Often, these behaviors are driven by deeper emotional pain—shame, trauma, disconnection—not a lack of willpower.
In therapy, we’ll explore what’s fueling the behavior, create a plan for meaningful change, and work to re-establish trust, romance, and emotional connection—whether in your current relationship or within yourself. If your partner has been hurt, we’ll address the rebuilding process with care and accountability.
This is a space where you can speak openly without judgment. You don’t have to live in secrecy, and you don’t have to do this alone. Whether you’re sure you’re dealing with an addiction or just starting to ask the question, I’m here to support you.

Garland is one of Dallas's largest and most diverse suburbs, a working- and middle-class city with substantial Latino, Vietnamese, and Black communities and an economy rooted in manufacturing and trades. Its mental health picture reflects that diversity — demand for Spanish- and Vietnamese-language care, family and intergenerational concerns, and economic stress — in a city with fewer local practitioners than wealthier suburbs nearby. The broader Dallas-Fort Worth therapy market and telehealth fill much of the gap for Garland families.
