Sexual Addiction Therapists in Madison County, KY

Addiction is just a way of trying to get at something else. Something bigger. Call it transcendence if you want, but it’s a rat in a maze." Addiction, in its many forms, has been one of my passions since entering this field. I would love to work with anyone struggling to control behaviors that have gotten out of their control. There is power and healing when a client shares their deepest and darkest thoughts in hopes of inviting change and escaping shame. Shame and judgement keep us all locked away in our minds. I want to step into the struggle alongside you, and seek to help you find a way to a life full of freedom and recovery.

I see counseling as an effective collaborative working relationship based on mutual trust and respect. I was born and raised in Germany and have successfully worked with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds over the years. Cultural sensitivity is therefore very important to me. Prior to moving to Kentucky, I practiced counseling in Wisconsin and Minnesota since 2005 at various clinical settings, such as outpatient mental health clinics and in private practice. I also provide spiritual companionship and leadership coaching (see my website for details).

You're tired, broken, and weary from trying and failing again and again. Sexual addiction has promised you the world but robbed you of your soul. At times it seems hopeless. You’ve questioned if it’s even possible to be free. This is an understandable sentiment. Sexual addiction is a beast. But despite how impossible it may seem, true freedom can be achieved. My approach addresses three areas of the problem to help you discover lasting freedom. I want to empower you to have control over urges, help you find the roots of the problem and remove them, and ultimately help you change your relationship with sex.

You're the person who is most critical of you. You want to take a break, but you're afraid of what will happen if you do. When you're resting, you think you should be working more. When you get stuck on a project, you feel like a failure. You want to feel appreciated, but you can't accept people's compliments. You are wrecked by people's disappointment in you. You feel like you are an impostor at your job, with your friends, maybe your family, too. You're driven by a steady level of anxiety and fear of failure. You could really use some clarity, peace, and quiet.

It's my passion helping people get what they want in their life and relationships. I help INDIVIDUALS make changes and overcome obstacles to get what they want in life and with the people they care about. I help COUPLES reconnect and revitalize their relationship. I work with FAMILIES to break through patterns and blocks, and begin to enjoy each other and create the home they dream of.

Hello! My name is Steve Duff and I am excited to begin this journey with you. I previously worked in the community mental health setting and gained a deeper understanding of mental health disorders, especially in the area of trauma. I was fortunate enough to work with clients from different backgrounds and gain experience in the treatment of various mental health disorders. It was through this experience that I became passionate about working with individuals that have experienced trauma. I believe that I am different than most therapists, as I am real. I am a human being first and foremost, before a therapist.

A client stated after a session with calmness and clarity in their voice, "That felt like a deep tissue massage of the mind".

But with IFS therapy, I can help you access the healing energy within. Together, we can befriend and heal the parts inside you that are stuck in extreme roles and help these parts feel calm and balanced. "I experienced a shift that changed everything. I can't recommend Natalie highly enough."- Client.

Therapy serves a unique purpose to each individual. I'm committed to helping you, your partner, or your family work towards the goals and individual hopes you identify as important to your life and relationships. I focus on creating an atmosphere that is safe and provides you with a place to share your story without fear of judgment. Therapy can help you find solutions and learn skills to help you cope with daily stresses, relational and marital problems, past trauma, job stress, grief and loss, etc. I can offer professional guidance and support as you identify and work towards your goals.

As a sex and relationship therapist, I am passionate about guiding people in the journey of exploring their true self. As a person learns to love and accept themselves, they are able to experience a deeper level of intimacy and connection with others. The most gratifying relationship is one that involves two people who are able to connect emotionally, intellectually, sexually and spiritually. I look forward to working with individuals and couples who desire to reach a healthier view of themselves, their relationships and their sexuality. As vulnerable as it can feel to engage in therapy, it can also be a rewarding journey.

I help people heal from trauma, connect with their authentic selves, and live more meaningful lives.

Together, we can work towards healing and living a more meaningful life.
