Sex Addiction Therapy in Houston, TX
Compassionate, confidential therapy for individuals and couples struggling with compulsive sexual behavior, pornography addiction, and intimacy disorders. You are not alone — and recovery is possible.
Understanding Sex Addiction
Sex addiction — also called compulsive sexual behavior disorder or hypersexual disorder — is a pattern of intense, repetitive sexual thoughts, urges, or behaviors that feel out of control and cause significant distress or harm in a person's life. Like other behavioral addictions, it is not a moral failing or a character flaw. It is a recognized mental health condition that responds well to professional treatment.
At Mona Therapy, we provide a safe, judgment-free space for individuals and couples to address compulsive sexual behavior with honesty and compassion. Our therapist brings clinical expertise in addiction, trauma-informed care, and relationship counseling to help clients understand the roots of their behavior, develop healthy coping strategies, and rebuild trust — with themselves and with their partners.
Signs You May Benefit from Sex Addiction Therapy
Our Treatment Approach
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Many individuals with compulsive sexual behavior have underlying trauma. We use trauma-informed approaches to safely explore and heal the root causes driving the behavior — not just the symptoms.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps identify the thought patterns, triggers, and beliefs that fuel compulsive behavior. We work together to replace unhealthy cycles with healthier responses and coping strategies.
Motivational Interviewing
Change is hard. Motivational interviewing helps you explore your own reasons for change, strengthen your commitment to recovery, and navigate ambivalence without judgment.
Couples & Relationship Counseling
When compulsive sexual behavior has damaged a relationship, we offer couples therapy to help both partners process the impact, rebuild trust, and decide together how to move forward.
