Sex and 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 and Porn Addiction
Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Many people use the term “sex or porn addiction” to describe feeling out of control with sexual behavior, but I do not see your sexuality as a disease to be cured or a moral failure to fix. Instead, we look at patterns of compulsive or out‑of‑control sexual behavior in the context of trauma, shame, nervous‑system coping, and the meanings sex has held in your life. Together, we work to reduce secrecy and shame, understand what your sexual behavior has been trying to manage or soothe, and build safer, more values‑aligned ways to experience pleasure, connection, and integrity in your sexual life and relationships.
