About

As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) trained in IFS as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), I am absolutely passionate about helping those impacted by sexual integrity issues. I work with "addicted parts" using individual, couple, and group therapy modalities. I am quite aware of relational trauma that partners of sex, porn, and relationship addicts experience, and I compassionately work to guide addicted parts through isolating and shame-filled experiences. My role is to help reduce this shame and systematically get to the root of the addictive and compulsive behaviors that have led to intimacy disorder issues.
As a Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (CSAT), I hold extensive expertise in treating those affected by compulsive sexual behavior having gone through my own recovery journey from sex, porn, and relationship addiction. I am trained in the 30-Task Recovery model (group therapy), PACT Couples therapy model, and Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) for individuals.
My unique background working in the rail transportation industry for 20+ years allows for relate-ability in trauma (train/auto accidents). As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, let me help you process traumatic episodes using Internal Family Systems (IFS), Trauma Resilience (TRM), Brainspotting, and Alpha-Stim Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation (CES).

Joe Saavedra's Groups

Men's 15-week Sexual Integrity Group (Tues @ 7pm)

Research suggests that those who struggle with sexual integrity issues have greater treatment outcomes when group therapy is integrated as an adjunct to individual therapy and 12-step work. Group work is a crucial element to recovery that allows for deep relational connection between group members. Addicts have often times been traumatized during childhood years and group interventions provide a safe and supportive environment to process trauma. This group will be limited to 8 participants (men only) and will be first come first serve. Those interested in learning more about this group can simply call or email me for details.
