Men’s Healthy Intimacy & Sexuality Group
This group is designed for men struggling with sexual addiction, porn addiction, and trauma who want to maintain sobriety, build healthier lifestyles, and improve communication with their partners.
This group provides a structured, confidential environment where men can develop accountability, emotional awareness, and relational integrity alongside others facing similar challenges.
Unlike 12-step groups you will benefit from other people’s experiences, feel you’re not alone and receive feedback from other people who have been where you are now.
Who This Group Is For
This group may be a good fit if you are:
• Struggling with sexual addiction or compulsive sexual behavior
• Working toward sobriety from porn addiction
• Impacted by trauma or unresolved emotional pain
• Seeking healthier intimacy and communication in relationships
• Looking for accountability and peer support
• Tired of managing recovery alone
Participation requires an interview process to ensure the group is clinically appropriate and safe for all members.

Advantages of Group Therapy
Group therapy offers unique benefits that individual therapy alone cannot always provide. Research and clinical experience consistently show that group work plays a critical role in recovery and relational healing.
Shared Experience and Normalization
Many individuals enter therapy believing they are uniquely broken or alone in their struggles. As described by Irvin D. Yalom in The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy, group participation helps normalize suffering and reduce shame.
Hearing others share similar experiences helps dissolve isolation and supports the early stages of healing.
Giving and Receiving Support
Group members are encouraged to support one another through listening, feedback, and honest reflection. The therapist facilitates the process, but the group itself becomes a powerful source of connection.
This dynamic reduces loneliness and builds trust through shared vulnerability.
Finding Your Voice
Men struggling with addiction, trauma, or PTSD often suppress emotions or compartmentalize them. Group therapy provides a safe environment to express feelings without acting on them.
Learning to articulate emotions rather than numbing them strengthens emotional regulation and improves relational trust with partners and family members.
Healthier Relationships with Others and Self
Through emotional interaction and feedback, group members develop awareness of relational patterns that also show up outside the group.
This process supports deeper self understanding and more effective communication in intimate relationships.
Accountability and Structure
Weekly group meetings create consistent accountability. Members reflect on the previous week, challenges faced, and progress made.
The expectation of accountability to the group often acts as a powerful deterrent to acting out behaviors and reinforces commitment to recovery.
Therapeutic Leadership
The group is facilitated by Allan J. Katz, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Sex Addiction Therapist with extensive experience leading groups focused on addiction recovery, trauma, and relational repair.
All sessions are conducted in a confidential, respectful environment focused on growth, responsibility, and long term change.
