I will work with you cognitively, behaviorally, emotionally, and with your permission, spiritually, to help you overcome sexual addiction, pornography addiction, and sexual compulsivity that is causing you distress. Individual, couple, and group therapies are the recognized and empirically proven state of the art interventions for sexual problems in these areas. Let me walk with you to tap into real life change and 2nd order change that is available by God's Grace and Wisdom.

The clinicians at Underwood Counseling & Consultation, PLLC have a combined 50 years of experience in treating substance addiction & process addictions (e.g. gambling, video, & shopping). We believe that successful addiction treatment requires exploration & resolution of the underlying emotional issues. We assist clients & families in understanding the patterns of their addiction; developing healthy alternatives to addictive behavior; & establishing healthy support systems to maintain a sober life.

Sobriety is very difficult to maintain but there is hope for the damage your addiction has caused in your life. You don't have to allow your addiction to take everything from you. If your addiction already has (just like so many others) then we can help you rebuild your life one step at a time. There is more to know about addiction than people think and there are very effective treatment options for it. Counseling is a great start.

As a therapist who has worked with both teens and adults with substance use disorders and addiction for years, I can say I truly enjoy being a part of the healing that takes place in recovery. Addiction is still one of the most stigmatized mental health issues, and still somehow seen as a personal flaw more so than a brain process. Healing from addiction requires someone that has the experience to know when to empathize, and when to challenge and it takes a therapist with a ton of patience and compassion to be comfortable reaching into the darkest parts. Addiction is not your fault, but recovery becomes your responsibility and it helps to have an ally willing to go there with you.

Dependence on chemicals (such as alcohol or drugs) or behaviors (such as sex, gambling, spending, etc) can begin to limit our choices in life. When the line is crossed to dependency or addiction, there is a hopeless and frustrating feeling that will come over us. Please understand that there is a way through this and you do not have to continue to suffer. If your use of the drugs, alcohol or behavior is costing you, know that there is a solution and counseling will help you figure out a plan to address the issue.

In my approach to working with clients struggling with addiction, I implement a set of techniques aimed at creating a positive and supportive environment conducive to clients' success and resilience in the face of setbacks. Recognizing that the decision to seek addiction treatment is often challenging, I acknowledge the potential external pressures or societal stigma clients may face. Central to my approach is conveying to clients that their well-being is of utmost importance. By fostering an atmosphere where they feel safe discussing their vulnerabilities and hardships, I aim to empower them on their path to recovery.
