Welcome, I'm Lori Cao, and I'm delighted you've found your way here. If you're navigating challenges such as pornography/sexual addiction, compulsive sexual behaviors, deception, gaslighting, betrayal trauma, complex trauma, problematic sexual choices, as well as anxiety and/or depression, you're in the right place. For those seeking to enrich their relationships, it's a privilege to guide individuals and couples towards deeper, more fulfilling connections. Our aim is to assist every individual and couple in fostering a life and relationship that is healthy, balanced, connected, and joyful.
As a CSAT, CPTT, Certified Sexologist, CCBRT-candidate, PsyT, and EMDR Certified, I specialize in working with individuals and couples struggling with out-of-control sexual behaviors, as well as partners and spouses impacted by betrayal trauma. With empathy and confidentiality at the forefront, I offer therapy, groups, and workshops.
Taking that initial step to seek support is a courageous act towards achieving your objectives. Utilizing evidence-based therapy, I provide tailored support as clients acquire effective tools and techniques to progress towards their healing goals. If you're ready to embark on this journey towards growth and healing, I am eager for opportunity to support you.
