Certified Sexual Addiction Counseling in Memphis, Tennessee
Memphis, Tennessee
Find Hope, Healing, and Freedom from Sex, Love, and Porn Addiction
If you feel trapped in out-of-control sexual behaviors, you’re not alone. Many people struggle with compulsive patterns (whether it’s pornography, affairs, escorts, hookups, or obsessive fantasies) and feel powerless to stop. These behaviors often bring shame, secrecy, and guilt while damaging relationships, careers, finances, and self-worth.
At Rediscovery Counseling & Coaching, we provide Certified Sex Addiction Therapy (CSAT) in Memphis, Tennessee. Our approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and trauma-informed for both the person struggling with addiction and their betrayed partner. We help you understand what drives the cycle of addiction, and we guide you toward lasting recovery and healthier intimacy.
Do You Recognize These Signs of Sex or Porn Addiction?
While only a professional diagnosis can confirm addiction, here are common patterns we see:
A cycle of out-of-control sexual behavior (acting out despite wanting to stop)
Escalating sexual activity to feel satisfied
Using porn, sex, or fantasy to escape stress, loneliness, or pain
Relationship conflict, secrecy, or betrayal connected to sexual behaviors
Feeling guilt and shame, but continuing the behavior anyway
Neglecting family, work, or hobbies to pursue sexual activity
Intense mood swings tied to sexual behavior
Hiding or lying about porn or sexual activities
Inability to set boundaries around sex or fantasy
If any of these sound familiar, you may be struggling with sex or love addiction, porn addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior disorder.
Why Choose Rediscovery Counseling in Memphis?
Many people hesitate to seek help because they fear being judged, labeled, or shamed. At Rediscovery, we approach healing differently:
Respect, Not Judgment: We don’t shame you or your partner.
Trauma-Informed: We view betrayed partners as trauma survivors, not as people who “just need to get over it.”
Inclusive: We don’t pathologize “outside-the-box” interests. Our focus is on whether behaviors are harmful or disruptive.
Personalized Care: We dig beneath the behavior to address triggers, emotional wounds, and the deeper need for intimacy.
Our goal is to help you break free from destructive patterns, rebuild trust in your relationships, and rediscover your sense of self-worth.
Understanding Sexual Addiction
Sexual addiction (sometimes called compulsive sexual behavior disorder) is more than just a habit. It’s an intimacy disorder where the brain becomes “hijacked” by unhealthy coping mechanisms. Stress, childhood trauma, loneliness, or emotional pain often trigger the cycle.
Like drugs, gambling, or alcohol, compulsive sexual behavior rewires the brain and takes priority over everything else: relationships, career, finances, and even personal values. Without help, the cycle deepens, leaving people isolated and hopeless.
But recovery is possible. With the right tools, support, and professional guidance, you can:
Identify and manage triggers
Develop healthier coping skills
Rebuild intimacy and trust in relationships
Strengthen boundaries and self-respect
Find freedom from secrecy, shame, and compulsive behavior
