Intimacy Disorder Treatment
Intimacy is a sense of closeness with another person in your life. It makes you feel understood and connected. People with an intimacy disorder fear these vulnerable connections and push people away if they get too close.
Intimacy disorders frequently result from traumatic experiences, often those that happen in childhood. If you can’t rely on the people who are supposed to care for you, then you learn not to trust people.
An inability to form intimate connections with others robs you of the human experience. It makes developing and maintaining relationships almost impossible, leaving you feeling alone, misunderstood, and possibly coping through negative behaviors.
Begin Again Institute understands the negative impact intimacy disorders can have on a person’s life. We work with you to identify and heal from the root cause of the disorder and establish ways to create true emotional connections.
Sex Addiction Treatment
Sex addiction is a form of intimacy disorder where you have an excessive preoccupation with sexual fantasies, urges, or behaviors you can’t control. The addiction causes you severe emotional distress and affects every part of your life.
A distinctive feature of sex addiction is that you try to stop these negative behaviors but find you can’t.
Like other intimacy disorders, sex addiction often results from unresolved traumatic experiences that leave a person trying to find a way to avoid and cope with negative emotions. To heal from the disorder and stop the adverse behavior, you must first identify, understand, and process that trauma.
Begin Again Institute specializes in the treatment of sexual addiction, and we’re here to help you stop harmful behaviors.
Pornography Addiction Treatment
Pornography addiction is another type of intimacy disorder. Men with this addiction compulsively view porn to the point that they become emotionally dependent on it. Like sex addiction, they can’t stop, and their pornography habit negatively affects their everyday life
Pornography addiction also often results from attempting to cope with unresolved traumatic experiences. Porn use also can help a person temporarily avoid negative emotions or escape from reality. To heal from the disorder and stop the negative behavior, you must first identify, understand, and process the trauma.
Begin Again Institute can help you break the hold porn has on your life.
Betrayal Trauma Treatment
Addictions like those to sex or pornography don’t just damage the person experiencing them. Your partner may experience trauma as a result of your betrayal. Betrayal trauma is the devastating emotions you feel after someone close to you has betrayed your trust.
Begin Again Institute has a specialized program exclusively for women experiencing betrayal trauma. We also have a specially designed Christian-focused partner program, Boulder Recovery, that helps you recover emotionally and rebuild your spiritual life.
You didn’t ask for the betrayal, but you deserve to heal from it.
