The sex addiction therapy group that does not believe in sex addiction but does believe in therapy; possibly the most effective treatment for "sex addiction".
Maybe you find yourself on the Internet every second you're alone. Maybe you've cheated on someone you hold dear in your heart--maybe too many times to count or maybe one time that you'll never forget. Maybe you look back at the time and wonder where it all went. What else could you have done with that time? All of these struggles can be heart breaking, isolating struggles to hold onto.
What to expect
You can find help here. Meeting since March 2025, this group of men has come together every week to face these difficult realities in their lives. In this group, you can expect warmth and understanding, but you can also expect the men in this group to challenge you. No one said this work is easy, but when you get better, bit by bit, it can lead to some of the most rewarding moments of your life.
