London Psychotherapy For Sex Addiction

Sex addiction is a very real and increasingly common addiction with potentially devastating consequences. A cycle of sexual addiction can prove extremely difficult to overcome without the appropriate professional support, and can often jeopardise both the mental and physical health of the individual concerned, and that of those closest to them. Men in particular – gay, straight and bisexual – increasingly struggle with sex addiction, and making sense of compulsive, problematic behaviours increasingly facilitated by a combination of a hyper-sexualised culture and the technological advances that facilitate it.

Therapy for sex addiction in London

A compulsion towards sex addiction cannot simply be explained, though, by the increasing availability of online porn and an app culture of casual hook-ups. Sexual addiction commonly manifests from a range of emotional issues, often relating to generalised anxiety and low self-esteem, and more specific issues relating to sexuality and body confidence. A first step towards understanding and gaining some control over sexual addiction is to develop a greater understanding of the underlying issues that draw addicts into self-destructive patterns of sexual behaviour.
