About

Sex Addiction impacts so many parts of a person's life. First and foremost, it is a disease of choice whose main symptom is denial. An addicted individual makes choices that are illogical, even to himself. Then, denial supports the individual's way of thinking of his choices. This pattern becomes deeply ingrained over time as the individual lies to himself and others about what is happening to him. Dishonesty becomes a way of life as much as the addiction. The pursuit of the addiction becomes the primary interest and the real world progressively becomes deeply impacted, oftentimes, without the individual's awareness, yet painfully obvious to those that love and care for the afflicted individual.

Those individuals who are able to consider a different way of feeling, thinking, and behaving are capable of tremendous change and growth. I believe there are certain steps that are necessary for confronting and addressing addiction. I invite you to let me join you on your journey of Recovery.
