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.

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.

Virginia Beach and the surrounding Hampton Roads metro area have one of the highest concentrations of active-duty military personnel and veterans in the country, anchored by Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — creating sustained demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, and the dynamics of military family life. Therapists experienced with moral injury, deployment-related adjustment, and service-to-civilian transition are well represented, and many practices specifically orient their care toward service members and their families. Sentara Health and Bon Secours provide institutional mental health resources for the region, complemented by a growing private practice community. Virginia Beach's coastal environment and strong community ties give the city a relatively stable baseline, though the psychological weight of military life remains a defining feature of the local therapy landscape.
