Sex, love and pornography addiction are most often accompanied by intimacy disorder.

This is a condition where an individual experiences significant difficulty forming and maintaining close and emotionally meaningful relationships. Those with intimacy disorders have often struggled from childhood to establish a safe environment and develop the relationship skills required for deep and lasting emotional connection.

Group work led by a skilled therapist provides a structured, safe environment for you to become accountable for your behaviors and learn important skills required for intimacy. These skills include tuning into your own emotions, active listening, humility, empathy, communicating feelings, emotional regulation, accountability, honesty, and seeing from another’s perspective.
