An Addiction With Major Collateral Damage

At Integrative Life Center, we recognize that sex addiction treatment is difficult to find. If you’re suffering from sex or pornography addiction, you deserve heart-centered and trauma-focused treatment to help you lead your best life—and you’ll find it when you partner with us.
Overcoming Sex Addiction Starts Here
What is Sex Addiction?
Sex addiction falls under the umbrella of a compulsive sexual behavior disorder, as classified in the International Classification of Disease-11 (ICD-11). Marked by frequent, uncontrollable, or extremely intense sexual urges or behaviors, a sex addiction can easily harm all aspects of your life, including your work, relationships, physical health, and finances.
One of the critical hallmarks of suffering from sex addiction is just that, suffering. If you or your loved one’s sexual behaviors are causing significant distress in your life and relationships, sex addiction may be the root cause.
Sex Addiction Symptoms and Consequences
Sex addiction comes from a lack of attunement and trauma in early childhood. This compulsive sexual behavior rewires your brain similarly to any other form of addiction. As a result, you crave the dopamine surge that it provides. If you’re struggling with any of the following, you may need treatment for sexual addiction:
Key Sex Addiction Symptoms
- Feelings of shame, guilt, or regret from your sexual behaviors
- Attempting to hide your sexual activities from others
- Using masturbation or sex as a coping mechanism for extreme emotions
- Thinking about or planning sexual activities for a significant part of your day
- Engaging in escalating sexual behaviors regardless of consequences
- The inability to stop your sexual behaviors
Consequential, Risky Behaviors
- Having unprotected sex with strangers
- Engaging in sexual activities in a public place
- Employing the services of a sex worker
- Using pornography or similar media while at work
- Engaging in infidelity
The Importance of Treating Co-Occurring Disorders
Addiction rarely happens in a vacuum. Sex addiction, in particular, often occurs in tandem with other mental health conditions. Most commonly, those who suffer from sex addiction may also suffer from:
- Depression
- Antisocial personality disorder
- Bipolar disorder
- Substance use disorder
Substance abuse often accompanies sex addiction because addictive substances are used to help soothe desires. That’s why our sex addiction therapy program treats both your addiction and any underlying issues, so you can find complete, long-term healing.
