Sex Addiction Therapy
I can help to initially assess if you have an addiction to sex and if appropriate work with you to develop a treatment plan to reduce or stop unwanted behaviours. Like any addiction this issue can have a large number of harmful consequences to individuals and can develop to be a debilitating factor in their life making a meaningful and purposeful life difficult. Behaviours often lead to depression, anxiety and low self-worth and unhelpful cycles quickly develop.

I develop a bespoke treatment plan to assist ceasing unwanted behaviours and also address any underlying issues that may be present such as trauma and difficult circumstances in life.
