Let's talk about

Sex & Pornography Addiction

Sex and pornography addiction involve compulsive behaviours related to sexual activity or consuming explicit material, often used as a way to cope with emotional stress. These behaviours can interfere with relationships, work, and self-esteem, causing feelings of guilt, shame, or isolation. Recovery is possible with the right support and strategies.

Key characteristics of sex and pornography addiction include:

  • Persistent urges or behaviours that feel uncontrollable.

  • Hiding or lying about sexual behaviours or pornography use.

  • Feeling guilty, ashamed, or distressed about behaviours.

  • Negative impact on relationships, work, or daily life.


With the right support, sex addiction therapy can help individuals address these behaviours and rebuild emotional well-being.
