Sex Addiction Treatment Midland, MI

Sexual addiction isn’t about liking sex or having a high drive. It’s about the inability to stop—no matter how hard you’ve tried.

Hi, I’m Rob. I know how exhausting it can feel to be trapped in compulsive sexual behaviors that create chaos in your life. Sexual addiction isn’t about liking sex or having a high drive. It’s about the inability to stop—no matter how hard you’ve tried. Relentless cycles of compulsive masturbation, painful emotional distress, hours in sex chat rooms, or risky hookups—behaviors you want to stop but can’t.

It’s overwhelming, it’s isolating, and it often feels like there’s no way out. But I want you to know there is hope. Healing is real, and recovery is possible.

Unlike many counselors, I won’t tell you to keep this part of your life hidden, and I certainly won’t tell you to accept it as something you can’t change. My approach is rooted in evidence-based techniques and years of experience walking with people just like you toward freedom.

I’m certified as a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) through IITAP—the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals. This certification is the highest standard for sex addiction therapy, and it reflects the rigorous training I’ve undergone to help people like you break free from this cycle and take back their lives.

I’ve spent years working with individuals to overcome sex addiction, get into recovery, and maintain it. I’ve seen firsthand what happens when someone steps into this process—they move from feeling lost and overwhelmed to finding hope, freedom, and stability

Do you need help overcoming a sexual addiction?

Sexual addiction is a problem that cannot be successfully battled alone. Research indicates that traumatic past experiences are often at the core of addictive behavior. Addiction is a dysfunctional way of self-medicating and regulating mood, and support is essential if there is to be any hope of recovery. With the increasing accessibility of internet pornography and sexual hook-up/dating sites, sexual addiction is increasing at an alarming rate. Addiction is enslaving, and it affects the entire family system.

We have several Certified Sexual Addiction Therapists on our staff who are trained to treat sexual addicts and their partners, as well as provide effective couples counseling.

If you are unsure if sexual addiction is a problem for you, the following questions can help you determine if more assessment is needed through a counselor trained in sexual addiction therapy. The acronym PATHOS is used to describe the symptoms of sexual addiction.

What were your results?

If you responded yes to just one question it would indicate a need for additional assessment. Responding yes to two or more indicates the probability of an addictive problem.
