Cynthia A. Criss

I specialize in the treatment of SEXUAL ADDICTION, (such as pornography) offering services for those with sexual addiction, partners, and couples. You can have healthy behaviors and intimate relationships. Sexual addiction destroys intimacy. It is a traumatic experience when the behavior is discovered. I work with both the person with the sexual acting out behavior and the partner. As the addict, you will gain insight to the cause and purpose of your behavior and learn healthy behaviors. As the partner, you will address the traumatic experience of discovering your partner's behaviors. Healing and intimacy are possible! If you think your partner is a sex or porn addict you likely are overwhelmed with feelings. I believe one of the most important needs of persons when they discover that their partners have been engaging in sexual addictive behaviors is support. I offer courage, strength and hope in healing. I help persons explore their childhood issues which directly impact being relational today. I believe that when we recover from the psychological damage that keeps us from intimacy, we will learn to experience renewed self-esteem, personal power, and faith which gives us the ability to have intimate relationships.
