Facing…Sobriety
Learn about using clearly stated boundaries of sobriety and managing life without dysfunctional sexual behavior.

Facing…Solutions

Facing Heartbreak
Finding out that the person you love is a sex addict is one of the most painful experiences a spouse or partner will ever go through. Hurt, betrayal, confusion, and anger are often the result of this discovery. Facing Heartbreak: The Steps to Recovery for Partners of Sex Addicts will help you move from heartbreak and betrayal, to hope and healing. Regardless of your decision to stay or leave the relationship, you deserve a chance to heal.
Stopping Internet Sexual Behavior
With the internet at our fingertips all day everyday, it is hard to not feel like you are addicted to screens and everything on them. It is a common quick reaction to grab the phone when you are bored, angry, lonely, or just for no reason at all! While lots of screen time has been shown to cause problems, one specific problem is compulsive sexual behavior. Do you find yourself sexting, looking at porn, caming, or other online sexual behaviors that you want to stop? Sometimes the main things a teen needs are some practical tools and skills that can help them stop and some peers who will encourage each other.
