Treatment Approach
Restoration and healing occurs when internal feelings, thoughts, wounds, and fear are explored within the context of a safe therapeutic relationship. Change happens when lies and long held beliefs are replaced with truth and new thoughts.
At Vancouver Sexual Addiction Recovery, our approach to treating sexual addiction varies from person to person, but for the most part, our team uses a set of proven tools and procedures. In combination with faith-based resources like Biblical guidance and prayer, sexual addiction counseling also includes:
- Discovering the cause of your addiction – Sex addiction is rarely about sex, but instead a way of masking deep pain that is usually rooted in things like past trauma, abuse, or anxiety. Once the cause of your addiction is discovered, we can work towards healing those wounds so you can find lasting, holistic recovery.
- Behavioral counseling – Forming healthy sexual habits, letting go of negative ideas, improving your self-image, and becoming more aware and in control of your thoughts and behaviors are key to sexual addiction recovery.
- Moving forward – The ultimate goal for sexual addiction recovery is for you to move towards a life of freedom and newness in Christ. We will help you rebuild damaged relationships, form new and healthy habits, and connect more fully with your partner, yourself and God.
