Meet Our Team

Our therapists specialize in sexual behavior, sexuality, and gender identity.

Many clients come to us with struggles often labeled Sex Addiction or Porn Addiction. Rather than focusing on these labels, the SAT approach creates a compassionate space to explore the deeper emotional and historical roots.

We view sexual acting out as a symptom—not the problem—and believe healing begins by understanding what drives it.
