Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address sexual addiction with a compassionate and faith-based approach, integrating psychological expertise with Christian principles to guide individuals toward healing and restoration. Recognizing the complexities of sexual addiction, I create a safe and non-judgmental space that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on God's grace and forgiveness. Combining evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a spiritual focus, I collaborate with individuals to explore the root causes of addictive behaviors and develop strategies for recovery. Encouraging a reliance on God's strength and a commitment to biblical principles of purity, I assist individuals in breaking free from the cycle of addiction. This integrated approach aims to support individuals in their journey toward sexual health, personal growth, and a deeper connection with their faith within the context of Christian values.

John Burkin
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC, LPCC, LCPC, CPL, Registered Member MBACP
I prefer to describe this topic as Sexual Compulsion as there is no chemical or physiological dependence occurring. I believe there is a much higher affliction rate of persons engaged in some form of sexual compulsion than is truly known due to the stigma associated with sexual behavior. My belief and approach for persons who wish to address their sexual activity and what they may believe to be compulsive sexual activity is to create a safe, non-judgmental and non-stigmatic environment. I choose to approach sexual activity by normalizing with clients. This means I do not take a position on your personal beliefs nor wish to override or interfere with them. The boundaries I have are simple; legal and consensual. From there I will help work with you to identify what practices are interfering with your wellbeing and we can find solutions which work for you.

Joshua Redding
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
There is so much made about sex that it can easily be confused for intimacy or love. It's neither of these things. While it may supply some level of physical pleasure the continual urge to masturbate or find another partner can be difficult. Often folks aren't even sure why they continue to find compulsive sexual acts to be deeply unfulfilling and hurtful to those around them. Therapy can help. Consider booking a free 30-minute consult to explore more.
