    In my experience, lust addiction stems largely from a kind of inner restlessness that is related very much to how one views himself. Often I find that my clients with lust addictions are people with very high, noble aspirations, and because their "acting out" is so contrary to their values it's really destroying their sense of self.

    Attraction issues are a particular speciality I deal with, which I approach with a diverse array of therapeutic techniques within a narrative framework.
