Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an IFS perspective, sex and porn addiction often involve parts seeking comfort, excitement, or escape from emotional pain. These parts may act compulsively to protect you from underlying feelings of shame, loneliness, or vulnerability. By accessing your Self with curiosity and compassion, you can help these parts feel safe and begin to make healthier, more conscious choices around intimacy and desire.

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.

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.

Newport News is defined by its location at the heart of the Hampton Roads shipbuilding and military industrial complex — home to Newport News Shipbuilding (now HII), one of the country's largest and most strategically significant defense contractors — creating a therapy community serving a large workforce navigating the psychological pressures of national security-adjacent industrial work alongside the region's substantial military population. The city has a large African American population with deep community roots in the Peninsula, and culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma, community resilience, and the particular dynamics of working-class Black life in Hampton Roads are an important part of the local landscape. Riverside Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community. Newport News shares the Hampton Roads mental health ecosystem with Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and Hampton, and residents often access care across the region.
