How a structured program can help

Online porn addiction can be hard to tackle because it’s often secretive and embarrassing to discuss. You are not alone—many young men face similar challenges.

Through our partnership with Clear Behavioral Health, you can access outpatient programs with individual and group therapy to address triggers, urges, and shame while building skills for impulse control, emotional regulation, and healthy intimacy.

Psychiatric support for addiction

While problematic pornography use may be the reason you sought treatment, it’s often not the only issue. Behavioral addictions are frequently linked to underlying mental health conditions, which can drive compulsive behaviors as a way to cope.

To address this, we partner with Neuro Wellness Spa to provide psychiatric support. They offer mental health evaluations and, when appropriate, may recommend medications for conditions like anxiety, depression, ADHD, or OCD that can contribute to compulsive behaviors.

What is porn addiction?

Porn addiction, or compulsive pornography use, is a behavioral addiction that continues despite negative effects on school, work, relationships, or emotional well-being.

While not new, younger generations are being exposed to porn earlier, and paid online platforms can add financial stress to the problem.

Symptoms and dangers of online porn addiction

If you or a loved one is struggling with porn addiction, you may notice certain warning signs. Excessive pornography use can also have long-term effects, including changes in sexual desire, desensitization, a higher risk of sexual violence, and the potential for developing sex addiction.

Here are some key signs and symptoms to watch for:
