When Your Sexual Behavior Feels Out of Control…

The anxiety, the secrecy- it’s all too much.

Maybe you’ve been caught, or maybe you just can’t keep hiding this from yourself anymore. You’ve tried to stop, but no matter what you tell yourself, you end up back in the same cycle.

  • Watching porn at work, even though you know it’s risky.

  • Engaging in sex you don’t actually enjoy—with strangers, multiple partners, or through sex workers.

  • Using sex as an escape from stress, loneliness, or emotional pain.

  • Mixing sex with drugs or alcohol, creating even more chaos.

  • Feeling out of control but also getting a temporary high from the rush of it all.

At first, it was just something you did. But now, it’s impacting your relationships, your work, and your sense of self.

You look in the mirror and wonder if you’re a bad person. The shame feels overwhelming.

You are not broken. You are not alone. You can regain control.

 

Is This Sex Addiction? Or Is It Something Else?

You may have asked yourself:

  • Am I addicted to porn?

  • What is a porn addiction, and do I have it?

  • How do I break a porn addiction?

  • Is there therapy for porn addiction recovery?

The truth is, out-of-control sexual behavior is complex. It’s not just about sex—it’s about compulsion, emotional regulation, and how your brain responds to desire and impulse.

Therapy can help you:

  • Understand what’s happening in your brain when you feel out of control

  • Recognize the difference between healthy sexuality and compulsive behaviors

  • Break the shame cycle that keeps you stuck in patterns of secrecy and regret

  • Develop a sexual health plan that actually aligns with your values

If you’re struggling with compulsive porn use, risky sexual behavior, or feeling powerless over your urges, therapy offers a space to process what’s happening.

Without shame or judgment.

This is More Than Just Sex Addiction Therapy

I don’t label my clients as sex addicts, and I won’t shame you into changing.

You are not a bad person, and your behavior does not define your worth.

Instead of focusing on labels, I help men understand:

  • How their brain works when they feel out of control

  • What sexual health means for them—not society, their partner, or anyone else

  • How to create relationship agreements and boundaries that align with their values

  • How to develop emotional regulation skills to make choices with clarity and confidence

This isn’t about restricting or punishing yourself—it’s about gaining the self-awareness and control to make choices that actually feel good, long-term.

This isn’t just about quitting porn—it’s about rebuilding confidence, control, and a healthier relationship with sex and desire.

 

Ditch the Shame. Choose Healing.
