Sexual Behavior and Addiction
Are you struggling with the following:
“I masturbate multiple times a day. I am at the point that it’s not even enjoyable every time, but I can’t seem to stop.”
“I watch porn numerous hours every day. I want to initiate sex with my wife more often, but I can’t seem to tear myself away from my computer.”
Can sex therapy help? Yes!
Daniel Lebowitz, M.A., LMFT is a certified therapist offering men a safe space to find healing and solutions to problematic sexual behavior. Daniel uses the following model to support men.
We treat out of control sexual behaviors with the OCSB model developed by Doug Braun-Harvey and Michael Vigorito (“Treating Out of Control Sexual Behavior: Rethinking Sex Addiction” Springer Publishing Company 2016 ). We do not use the addiction framework or 12-step program, which employs a trauma-based model aiming to treat a person’s “disorder”. Rather than assess a person with having a sex or intimacy disorder, we help individuals who feel out of control with sexual thoughts, urges and behaviors become accountable to living a life of optimum sexual health.
For individuals, we offer non 12-Step Treatment for Sex Addiction to help individuals manage undesirable and out of control sexual behavior, urges and feelings.
For couples, we offer non 12-Step Treatment for Sex Addiction to help couples heal to unearth sexual secrets to rebuild trust.
