Individual Counselling

Find online, individual, confidential support for breaking free from unwanted sexual behaviour—whatever that may be for you. These sessions provide a safe, non-judgmental space to talk honestly about your struggles and start untangling the patterns that have kept you trapped.

Dr. Patrick Carnes, whose groundbreaking research and books helped shape modern treatment for sexual addiction, found that individual counselling alongside group therapy reported significantly higher recovery rates than those in group treatment alone.

It is recommended to begin with at least seven sessions, starting with an introduction session to explore your history, current challenges, and goals. From there, each of the following six core roots of addiction are addressed in depth:

1. The Sexualised Society – understanding how cultural messages and influences shape unhealthy patterns.

2. The Addicted Brain – learning how the brain becomes wired for compulsive behaviour and how recovery rewires it.

3. Isolation – breaking the cycle of secrecy and disconnection by building safe, supportive connections.

4. Negative Emotions – developing healthy ways to manage stress, anger, sadness, and anxiety without turning to addictive behaviours.

5. Shame – learning to face shame with honesty and self-compassion, and breaking free from its destructive power.

6. Trauma – recognising and healing from past wounds that continue to drive harmful behaviours.

Individual counselling is tailored to your unique journey. Together, we will:

• Reflect on your personal story with honesty and without judgment.

• Learn practical strategies for breaking destructive cycles.

• Receive encouragement, guidance, and accountability to keep moving forward.

• Focus not just on stopping harmful behaviours, but on experiencing real transformation – healing past wounds, rebuilding self-worth, and restoring relationships.

The goal is to help you move beyond unwanted sexual behaviours and toward a life of freedom, integrity, and hope

Each session runs for 50 minutes at a cost of AUD $100.
