5 Biggest Mistakes People Make In Overcoming Problematic Sexual Behaviors
In this free video, you’ll discover the most common missteps that keep people stuck, and what you can do instead to build real, lasting change.
Porn and other problematic sexual behaviors can rob you of what matters most
We can help you find lasting freedom to save what you’re at risk of losing and foster a life better than you’ve ever had.
This can be achieved by doing more than just addressing the issue as a behavior. Instead, it must be seen as a relationship. Underneath the behaviors are deep-seated roots that create an attachment to porn or other problematic sexual behaviors. When you begin seeing porn and problematic sexual behaviors as the solution rather than the problem, you can begin to sever the ties that bind you to them.

At this time, I am not able to accept insurance in the state of Texas. This journey is an investment. Fortunately, most clients gain what they need from services after just 12 weeks or so. My goal is to give you what you need to succeed on your own, not keep you dependent on me.
With that being said, the standard rate for services is $125/session. If cost is an issue for you, contact me and see if I have availability for low-income assistance.
