What if anxiety didn’t have so much control over your decisions? And any time you were stuck in the depths of it, you could separate yourself from the thoughts, feelings, and urges that hold you down? Many people who struggle with social anxiety and "porn addiction" (more accurately called compulsive porn use) feel helpless, unsure about what change even looks like. But the truth is, anyone can be helped—just with the right direction and time to practice new ways of thinking. My only goal for you is to leave therapy with insight and skills that help you see anxiety and urges as passing experiences, not rulers of your life.
Stressful thoughts, feelings, and urges are easy to give into. My approach teaches how to react to them with awareness, not mindlessly and automatically. “A thought can stay just a thought.” While therapy is never easy, many people I work with describe this approach as simple, tangible, and eye-opening, and they notice their behaviors changing along the way.
My clients and colleagues say I'm insightful, humorous, affirming, and challenging—I'm not the type to just nod along. I always emphasize the value of kindness, especially towards oneself. I'm also a musician, so if punk and hip-hop are your things, we'll probably talk about them too. If you resonate, I look forward to you reaching out!
