Porn Addiction Counseling

Quit once and for all. 

Pornography Addiction

Porn used to be a fun escape from reality. A little harmless fantasy, right?  

But now it’s impacting your life. Your relationships. If you're married, you feel more critical of your spouse, and less satisfied with your sex life, which has you turning to porn more and more often, only increasing your guilt and shame. And if you're single, you feel like you have this dirty secret that gets in the way of pursuing love and faith.

Are you keeping your addiction a secret from your spouse or your family, living in fear of being discovered?


It’s easy to go from hiding a secret to hiding from those you love. 

Maybe your spouse knows about the addiction, and you are both in the turmoil of trying to figure out how you got to this place and where to go for help. 

Or perhaps you are a young adult who is battling an addiction alone.

No matter how long you have been struggling for, there is hope, even if you’re feeling stuck and plagued by an addiction that seems unbeatable. Help is available.

At OnlyYouForever, we help men and women of all ages (teens to seniors) break the cycle of addiction, providing help and support as we guide you through a healing journey to recover from the toxic shame, guilt, and negative self-esteem surrounding your addiction. 

Our Reliable 5-Step Process

  1. Assess the addiction: We'll begin with a thorough history of your porn addiction, look at co-occurring addictions, and examine your family history for patterns of addiction.
  2. Establish Gaurdrails: We'll help you set up barriers to acting out again to create a safety net against slips and relapses
  3. Identify the Chain: You will work with your therapist to detail out the steps you take toward porn or sexual behaviors so that you learn how to intervene on yourself and redirect towards healthy choices.
  4. Examine Fantasies: Learn the deeper meaning behind the fantasies you are drawn to. This work reveals the roots of the addiction: the parts most in need of healing so that you can bring yourself to your friendships, marriage or family relationships as a loyal, committed person.
  5. Healthy Intimacy: Heal attachment wounds and trauma so that you can build healthy, authentic and wholesome connections with the people that matter most to you, including making amends where necessary. This is where we deal with the roots of addiction so that you can establish lasting sobriety.

With decades of collective experience, there isn't much our team of qualified therapists have not seen. We also stay up-to-date on research and best practices through continuing education and ongoing research for our marriage podcast (currently over 2.3 million downloads!).

So what IS pornography addiction?

  • Using porn for stress relief
  • Thinking about how good it would be to watch porn
  • Failed efforts to stop
  • Losing track of time or spending hours using
  • Preoccupation with sex and sexual thoughts
  • Inability to fulfill obligations due to your addiction
  • Continuation in the addiction despite negative consequences
  • Escalation: the kind of porn you look at has become more extreme
  • Escalation: watching more and more porn
  • Losses due to the negative consequences of addiction
  • Withdrawal from others
  • Constantly objectifying others when out in public
  • Vowing to quit but failing again and again
  • If you're Christian, feeling disconnected from God

Jesse is a graduate of the Marriage and Family therapy program at ACTS seminary and a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors. Jesse specializes in couples’ therapy, pornography addiction, and individuals with trauma. Jesse works to create a trusting, open, and non-judgemental environment for his clients to create rewarding relationships.

My counselling style is highly relational, non-judgemental, and empathic. I work from a holistic perspective in that not only do I work with the mind and emotions, but I also work somatically (with sensation in the body). I love to work with trauma, especially developmental and complex trauma, as these are formative experiences which impact our relationships. With couples and families, I work from a family systems and somatic attachment-based paradigm.

Ricky believes that unprocessed emotions are what push people apart. Since we are created for connection, disconnection leaves individuals, families, and couples feeling distant, empty and in despair. Through the integration of faith and evidenced-based psychotherapy modalities, Ricky hopes to join you in your journey of finding new, loving ways of connecting. (Hablamos español)

I work from a client-centered approach meaning that I enjoy coming alongside you and helping you meet your goals. I want to use my skill and expertise to help you rediscover and strengthen your own skills as you move toward greater health and growth. My approach is built on Emotionally Focused Therapy, Systems Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Narrative Therapy.

I work from a client-centered approach. My work pulls from Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused Therapy. My style is informal, friendly and direct.

I use a direct approach to get to the heart of the issues or core problems and pain points so we can work together to find the best possible solutions. I use an integrative approach and believe there are a variety of ways to “do therapy” and its best to work together to find what’s best for you. Do you want immediate action steps or will it take you more time to warm up to the process? Either way, you are in the driver’s seat. My role is to walk with you and encourage you or challenge you in a way that will help you grow.
