The Center for Relational Recovery offers an individualized proven path and treatment program for relational recovery that will improve your relationships, help to resolve current and past traumas, and transform your life.
If you are struggling with sexual addiction your sexual behavior may feel compulsive or out-of-control. It may be creating negative consequences in your life and relationships that is causing pain for you and those you love. If you are the partner of a sex addict, you may be feeling intense pain resulting from experiencing betrayal, and confusion about what is happening and what to do next.
If you or someone you love are struggling with sexual addiction there is hope. Your relationships can heal, life can regain meaning and purpose and sex can once again become a source of life-giving joy.
Betrayal by someone we love and depend on damages our trust in others and in ourselves. It makes it harder for us to feel safe in our relationships and we can begin to hide our true selves behind emotional and relational walls. At the Center for Relational Recovery we help you to look at the places where betrayal trauma has harmed you and begin to heal these emotional wounds, enabling you to move toward the thing you long for most – deep meaningful connection with others.
Relationships are where we experience our greatest joy, our greatest pain and our greatest meaning in life. They are also the place where we learn the most about ourselves and are challenged to grow into the person we are created to be. At the Center for Relational Recovery we come alongside individuals, couples and families to help them learn how to be in their relationships in more enjoyable, healthy, life-enhancing ways.
