Tim is Certified Sex Addiction Therapist. Many sex & pornography addicts and their partners say they have been to therapy, but it has not been helpful….until they have begun therapy with a CSAT(Certified Sex Addiction Therapist). Founded by Dr. Carnes the CSAT program was developed after years of extensive experience and research in the field of addiction therapy now considered the gold seal standard in sex and pornography addiction. The dynamics of behavioral addictions are complex; so much so that mental health professionals must take an entirely different approach to even begin the process of understanding addiction and recovery.

Initially an engineer, I realized through a journey of self-discovery, reflection, and growth my true passion and skill was for helping people heal, giving hope, and creating change. This led me to pursue a Masters in Counseling through the CACREP-accredited counseling program at Denver Seminary. I believe the essence of my work is to facilitate self-growth by helping you identify the core challenges and setbacks in your life, so that you can overcome them with confidence. I am passionate about authentic relationships, with yourself and others.

Perhaps you are looking for a non-judgmental and knowledgeable space to integrate your experiences of gender, sexuality, and relationships. Perhaps you are experiencing barriers in your sexual and relational health: you feel out of control, disconnected, or stuck in painful patterns. Perhaps you seek a space that affirms the whole of your identities- race, gender, sexuality, relationship styles, neurodivergence, disability, and other aspects- to discuss what is on your heart. I find survival strength, resilience, and creativity at work even in the most challenging of circumstances. The whole of your being is welcome here.

Have you noticed you have been struggling to wake and feel confident about what’s ahead? Perhaps you feel no one else really understands? I want to help you on your path to discovering your values and how to achieve them. Life is not meant to be lived on the sidelines, you have everything inside of you to be the author of your life, and I can help you write the story the way YOU want it to be. I don’t think therapy must be a painful experience, or a last resort. Therapy can be something that can offer solutions for what you thought you, maybe, were the only one dealing with.

Life is a journey that is not meant to be walked alone, but instead in relationships and with vulnerability and openness. Therapy is an opportunity to build skills and resources to process and navigate life's everyday challenges. Asking for help and finding someone to share your burden with is a great show of strength and courage! For the quickest response please visit my web page and fill out a contact form.

Do you feel unsatisfied in relationships? Not seen, heard, or understood? Have difficulty navigating intimacy and communication? Is your sex life a source of distress? Are you hard on yourself about not being able to do things differently? I believe lasting change requires more than just talk therapy. Many of our wounds are stored in the body and we must speak the language of the nervous system in order to understand and heal them. Our work will address symptoms and stuckness at this level, which has the power to rewire habitual responses that formed around early attachment difficulties or trauma throughout the lifespan.

I know it's difficult to find a therapist with all the choices in front of you so I would like to take a second to encourage you and let you know that there is hope, support, and the potential for things to improve. It may be overwhelming in this moment, but just the fact that you are searching through profiles on Psychology Today tells me that you have the desire and the ability to work towards positive change.

Lost? Struggling? Hurt? Counseling isn't about losing and admitting defeat; its about gaining new directions and renewed strength. I help men and women who are stuck and ready to move onward. I don't judge or condemn your past decisions; I help you create new and healthy actions. Counseling is a place where you get the support you need to make sense of the chaos that has been going on so that you can see the direction to where you want your life to go!

My life philosophy revolves around bringing loving kindness and acceptance into all parts of my life—including inside the therapeutic space. I believe we are all doing the best with the tools and experiences we were given, and that therapy can bring new meaning to those experiences. As a counselor, it is not my job to tell others how they should be—instead, I am here to accept my clients as they are while holding space for the areas in their lives that they want to change.

Sexual Addiction Therapists

When should someone seek treatment for sex addiction?

People should seek treatment for sex addiction if they cannot control their sexual thoughts or behaviours to the point that it disrupts their ability to function in daily life, for example by threatening their finances, career, or relationships. This may include spending an excessive amount of time obsessing over sex, planning sex, watching pornography, or masturbating, as well as consistently engaging in risky sexual activities, using sex to escape distressing feelings, or attempting yet failing to control sexual behavior.

What are the most common treatment options for sex addiction?

Psychotherapy is the most common treatment for sex addiction; therapy helps patients better understand their compulsive thoughts and behaviors and develop strategies to manage their desires. Therapy may be supplemented by medications, such as antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-androgens, and the alcohol and substance use medication Naltrexone, as well as support groups, such as 12-step programs.

How long does therapy take for sex addiction?

Recovering from compulsive behavior takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but research suggests 12 therapy sessions may be enough to see change. Treatment for sexual compulsions requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers and developing coping skills, and potential lifestyle changes such as cutting out alcohol or drugs.

What if sex addiction is left untreated?

Compulsive sexual behavior can have serious repercussions if left unaddressed. For example, if sexual obsessions consume the vast majority of a person’s time, they may lose their job. If they can’t stop paying for sex, their finances may suffer. If they’re dishonest in their relationships, their partner may leave them. If they consistently feel shame, they may struggle with anxiety, depression, or loneliness. Therapy can help people develop the tools to manage sexual thoughts and behaviors that feel uncontrollable.
