Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Life Coach, Certified Betrayal Trauma & Sex/Porn Addiction Coach, Certified Trauma Healing Coach, IITAP, ADOH
When betrayal, infidelity, trauma, porn addiction, sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behaviors have affected your life or relationship, the impact on self-esteem can be profound. You may be struggling with shame, self-doubt, anxiety, loss of confidence, difficulty trusting yourself or others, or feeling disconnected from who you were before.
I help individuals navigate the emotional impact of betrayal trauma and infidelity, as well as those struggling with porn addiction, problematic pornography use, sex addiction, sexual compulsivity, and compulsive sexual behaviors. A Safe Place To Share, provides a confidential, judgment-free space to understand what happened, process painful emotions, and begin rebuilding your sense of self.
For partners who have experienced betrayal, we can work through the effects of infidelity and betrayal trauma, including intrusive thoughts, loss of trust, insecurity, anger, grief, and questions about your own worth or judgment. For individuals struggling with problematic or compulsive sexual behaviors, therapy can address the cycle of shame, secrecy, guilt, and unwanted behaviors while developing healthier ways to manage emotions, urges, relationships, and sexuality.
My goal is to help you rebuild self-esteem, self-worth, self-trust, confidence, and emotional resilience. Whether you are healing from someone else’s betrayal or trying to change behaviors that have caused pain in your own life, I can help you move beyond shame and toward greater self-understanding, healthier relationships, and lasting change.
You are not defined by what happened to you, and you are not defined by the behaviors you regret. If betrayal, infidelity, porn, sex, or compulsive sexual behavior has affected how you see yourself, A safe Place To Share can be a place to begin rebuilding your confidence and reclaiming your sense of self.

Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Self-esteem grows from understanding yourself rather than constantly judging yourself. Therapy can help you recognize unhelpful beliefs, develop self-compassion, and build confidence grounded in your values instead of unrealistic expectations or external validation.

Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
If your inner critic seems louder than your own voice, you're not alone. Therapy can help you understand where those self-critical beliefs came from, why they continue to show up, and how they've influenced the way you see yourself. Together, we'll replace self-judgment with curiosity while building a more compassionate relationship with yourself. Over time, confidence becomes less about proving your worth and more about living in alignment with your inner sense of vitality, calm, and courage that can emerge when the inner critic gets quieter.
