Sex/Porn Addiction
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.

Sex/Porn Addiction
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.
