Chances are, if you've landed on this page, you're experiencing a range of difficult emotions such as confusion, frustration, helplessness, or even hopelessness. You may have already tried to "read your way out" of this, and you're desperate to find answers. We see you, and are here to guide you towards healing.
If you're like many sufferers, you have good intentions, but attempts to stop your destructive sexual behaviors have been unsuccessful. You are hesitant to label yourself as an “addict", yet feel that something is definitely wrong. You're smart, successful, and otherwise have a good life... but you also know that healthy sexuality doesn't involve feeling anxious or shameful, and shouldn't control your life, so you're here looking for help. You may also be wondering if therapy can help you.
If you can answer yes to any of these questions, it’s time to reach out.
Our therapists specialize in therapy for sex addiction, porn addiction, and compulsive sexual behavior, as well as love addiction, sexual anorexia, and other difficult intimacy issues, all without shame or blame. Initially, we will focus on reduction of your symptoms through our tools and processes that have been proven to be successful. This space will then allow us to help you work through your triggers, and dive into the underlying reasons for your acting out, so that you can arrest the behaviors once and for all. Then, we will work together to help you define and embrace healthy sexuality. This is beneficial even if you haven't progressed to infidelity or illegal behaviors and just want to learn better ways to get your physical and emotional needs met.
It is our ultimate goal to provide you with a compassionate, yet challenging atmosphere with the kind of accountability and encouragement that yields real results. It won't be easy, but we believe in your ability to do the work, even if you can't see the way right now.
We are based in Frisco, Texas, but have offices in McKinney, Plano and Allen, and also offer virtual sessions anywhere in Texas. Call or click below to book a complimentary intro call and find out how we can help.
Sexuality is a normal, healthy part of adult life that can increase your emotional intimacy, strengthen your sense of self-image, and act as a buffer to outside stressors. In short, sex matters. But when sexual behaviors become addictive, destructive, or illegal, it's time to get help. Regardless of your age, ideology, or ethnicity, sex should never feel empty, joyless, or demoralizing.
Group therapy for sex and porn addiction can provide numerous benefits, including a sense of community, support, and accountability as you or your partner go through recovery. Here you will connect with others who are understand your struggles, and learn from their experiences in a group setting, helping you feel less isolated. Groups are led by a licensed therapist.
If you haven't experienced any "dramatic" consequences, it can be tough to admit you need help for substance abuse. Addiction is a single word that’s used to describe many different intensities of addictive behavior., but any way you slice it he abuse of any substance can have negative consequences. Let us help you get started on the road to recovery today.
Some anxiety is normal, but when you are suffering overwhelming or intense emotions continually, it can be tough. Chronic anxiety can stem from trauma, drug & alcohol usage, serious medical diagnosis, or even family-of-origin issues. Whatever the source, if not dealt with, anxiety can have devastating effects on the 'here and now', and intensify the compulsion to act out.
We know how much courage it takes to walk into a counseling office for the first time. Here you will be treated with the respect, empathy, and compassion that your courage deserves, from a team that has been there, too.
We'll start with a 15-minute, complimentary consult, done via video telehealth. This allows you to get to know a little about your therapist, and give them a brief outline of your concerns and initial goals for treatment.
During your first meeting, we'll talk about you and your life, and discuss the concerns that brought you to us. Together, we'll use this information to start to define your goals for therapy. Sessions are available in-person and via telehealth.
Effective therapy is a joint effort. Different people find different methods helpful, and that's what makes therapy that works look different for everyone. This also means that your input and feedback on the work we will do together is not only helpful, but necessary.
Group therapy provides a unique and valuable experience while going through individual counseling and recovery. It allows you to connect with others who are facing similar challenges, share experiences, and receive additional support in a safe and confidential environment.
