Day Patient ProgramsAbout The Program
Sex Addiction manifests in many different areas. Porn addiction, obsessive fantasy, chemsex and compulsive sexual behaviour, including masturbation, are just some of the ways that a person can experience unmanageability and negative consequences. This program helps to reduce shame around compulsive sexual behaviour while developing new tools and practices for ongoing recovery. The program is facilitated by dedicated and experienced therapists that understand the complexity of these cooccurring conditions and provide a safe space for you to heal and feel.

Who is it For?
The program is specifically tailored to individuals who identify as male and have a history of addiction, trauma, interpersonal and intimacy related issues such as sex and love addiction/love avoidant behaviours. It is for men who struggle with porn addiction, obsessive fantasy, chemsex and compulsive sexual behaviour, including masturbation, and have found their lives have become unmanageable due to the negative consequences of these behaviours and the growing need to ‘act out’ as a result of the growing dependency.
