Tucson Therapist Offering Sex Addiction Therapy

Jan. 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Dr. Shannon Sticken, a Tucson Psychologist, announces that she is offering therapy and counseling services to individuals and couples who are dealing with sex addiction. Dr. Sticken is a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Sex Addiction Therapist who has extensive work experience working with clients on rebuilding their lives after sex addiction has caused serious problems.

"When many of my clients come into treatment, they are trying to figure out how to not only control their behavior, but also to build or rebuild trust and intimacy," says Sticken. This is what builds the foundation for Sticken's approach to providing therapy. By opening up new lines of communication, these couples learn how to work through betrayals and move forward to a more functional relationship.

Dr. Sticken also recognizes the shame that comes with sex addiction. "It is important to me that my clients don't feel judged," she says. This does not mean that she is not direct in her approach. "Clients also need to hear constructive feedback, in order to help them change." However, Sticken recognizes that change is not always easy, and she is gentle in her pushing clients to see how their thinking impacts their decisions.

Dr. Shannon Sticken currently has open slots for providing her expert therapy services to people dealing with sex addiction. However these openings will not likely remain open for long with Sticken's specialized training from Dr. Patrick Carnes (a leader in sex addiction therapy training), as well as her impressive resume working with leading sex addiction treatment organizations such as Gentle Path. Call today if you are in the Tucson area and looking for a Tucson therapist who specializes in sex addiction.
