Are you struggling with sexually problematic behavior? Do you think you may be addicted to pornography? Has your spouse betrayed trust by crossing emotional boundaries with someone else? There is hope. It is possible to recover from compulsive or addictive behaviors and to have marriage and family relationships restored.

I've successfully helped individuals, couples, and families heal from sex and porn addiction by providing a safe, non-judgmental, confidential setting to help learn tools to grow beyond the grip of destructive choices.

You've found me because your old coping strategies stopped working. If your usual strategies for handling life just…broke... you're not the only one going through that. You might have tried to OUT-PERFORM... OUT- RUN your pain. These strategies kind-of work a little until they don't! Hard work, adulting and breathing, and spirituality are an important part of recovering from stress. But these strategies don’t work all the way when the body has created a specific reaction when we’ve been through something awful.

Therapy serves as a guiding hand through those complex emotions and experiences. It's like unraveling a yarn ball, therapy helps make sense of the entanglements in our thoughts, emotions, & experiences. It's a process of understanding the layers that contribute to feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Therapy provides a safe space to explore and process these feelings, offering support and guidance as you navigate through challenging emotions. It's a journey that involves identifying patterns, understanding the root causes of difficulties, and learning healthy coping mechanisms.

If you're looking to restore hope and balance in your life maybe you're ready to take that first step. Call today for an appointment.
