The Breakthrough Approach in Unwanted
Sexual Difficulties Reveal Our Way to Healing
Conventional Approaches Fail
For too long, the overwhelmingly standard response to sexual difficulties has been to address it through the lens of lust management, even declaring war against it.
Sadly, attempts to conquer unwanted behaviors fail to guide us into the lasting freedom we desire.
Unaddressed Problems are the Key
There is another approach. It begins by listening and getting curious. Internet searches, fantasies, or low desire might influence you to feel shame, but far more, they reveal the unaddressed and therefore unresolved stories of your lives.
Sexual problems are roadmaps. They pinpoint the location of your past harm and highlight the current roadblocks that keep you from growth.
If we pay attention, our sexual difficulties will reveal the way to healing.
A Blended Approach
Most approaches to addressing unwanted sexual behavior, be that porn, infidelity, or low desire are singular and formulaic. We now know enough about spirituality, culture and the neuroscience of trauma, abuse, and out-of-control behaviors to know all of them must be integrated to create lasting freedom from unwanted sexual behavior.
Because our approach blends all of them, it works.
You can outgrow unwanted behaviors. We will show you how.
