Sex and Porn Addiction
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.

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.

Sex and Porn Addiction
Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for sexual addiction, compulsive sexual behaviors, pornography addiction, infidelity-related issues, and the relationship trauma that often accompanies these struggles. Sexual addiction can deeply impact trust, emotional intimacy, self-esteem, marriage, family stability, and overall emotional well-being, often creating cycles of secrecy, shame, guilt, anxiety, and disconnection within relationships.
Many high-functioning and high-achieving individuals silently struggle with compulsive sexual behaviors while appearing successful professionally or socially. Despite external success, these behaviors can create profound internal conflict, emotional distress, relationship instability, and feelings of isolation or loss of control. Partners often experience betrayal trauma, emotional pain, hypervigilance, and difficulty rebuilding trust after discovering compulsive sexual behaviors or infidelity.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to sexual addiction counseling, helping clients understand the deeper emotional and psychological factors driving compulsive behaviors. Sexual addiction is often connected to unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, emotional neglect, chronic stress, shame, dissociation, or unhealthy coping patterns developed over time. Therapy focuses not only on behavior change, but on understanding and healing the root causes contributing to the cycle.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support meaningful and lasting recovery. Treatment focuses on reducing compulsive behaviors, resolving shame and guilt, improving emotional regulation, strengthening self-awareness, and helping clients develop healthier coping strategies and more authentic emotional connections.
Brad also works extensively with couples and relationship dynamics impacted by sexual addiction, betrayal trauma, and trust violations. Therapy may include rebuilding communication, restoring emotional safety, establishing healthy boundaries, and repairing trust within the relationship when appropriate. Partners are supported in understanding the impact of betrayal trauma while also creating healthier relational patterns moving forward.
Therapy provides a confidential, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients and couples can openly address painful experiences without shame or condemnation. The goal is not simply behavioral control, but deeper emotional healing, restored integrity, healthier relationships, and a renewed sense of self-worth and connection.
Healing and recovery are possible. With the right support, individuals and couples can move beyond cycles of addiction, shame, and disconnection to create healthier relationships built on trust, honesty, emotional intimacy, and lasting change.
Virtual counseling and online EMDR therapy sessions are available, providing confidential and convenient access to specialized trauma-focused therapy from the comfort and privacy of home.
