Chelsea Newton, LCSW
Hey! I'm Chelsea, and I've been supporting folks with sexual concerns for over a decade. My approach to porn addiction therapy is rooted in understanding, not shame. I get that porn use isn’t inherently problematic, but when it starts interfering with your life, relationships, or values, it may be time to consider whether there’s something deeper going on. Together, we'll explore what's driving the compulsive use and develop healthier coping strategies that actually work for you.

Therapy provides a safe space to explore the underlying causes of compulsive porn use without judgment. We'll work together to identify triggers, develop more helpful coping strategies, and address any shame or trauma that might be fueling the behavior. You'll learn practical tools to manage urges and build more satisfying relationships.

I use a sex-positive, trauma-informed approach that doesn't shame you for your sexuality. We'll focus on understanding what needs porn is meeting in your life and find healthier ways to meet those needs. I blend different techniques like CBT and somatic work, but honestly, what matters most is our connection and finding what works for you.

Expect honesty, no BS, and genuine support. Early sessions will focus on understanding your specific situation and building our therapeutic relationship. From here, some sessions will involve talking through triggers and patterns, and other times we'll practice new coping skills. The process isn't linear—there might be setbacks, and that's totally normal. Progress looks different for everyone.
