Hi I'm Cameron. I specialize in treating sexual addiction , betrayal trauma, and PTSD. I believe that unresolved trauma is at the root of many mental health issues. As we heal from within and resolve past experiences we begin to find more peace in the present moment. I have found that talk therapy doesn't necessarily resolve trauma and that additional interventions are often needed. If you are looking for a very directed and focused approach that is geared towards finding relief from the symptoms of trauma, the approaches I use may be a good fit for you.

Many of my clients are impacted by sexual addiction - I get it, and I'm here to help you or a loved one through the storms. (www.taylorlyman.com)

Most of my clients are from a conservative religious background, but this is not a must. We see clients that have a range of personal beliefs and values. We meet regularly with individuals and couples. Meeting as a couple is not a must.

Each relationship's story has successes and struggles. I believe some of the most powerful personal healing happens in relationships since many wounds (e.g., mental, emotional, attachment, etc.) are also rooted in relationships. My efforts focus on accessing that healing by exploring underlying beliefs, wounds, and fears that get in the way of you feeling connected with yourself, your partner/spouse, and others in your life.

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.
