Sex Addiction
Sometimes a person may wonder if they are a sex addict because they want sex more than their partner does or more than they or some else considers "normal". If you think you might be a sex addict you can ask yourself the following questions. Does your sexual activity—
- Interfere with your other daily activities?
- Interfere with your having healthy relationships?
- Cause you problems at work?
- Cost you large sums of money?
- Get you in trouble with the law?
- Cause you health problems?
Sex Addiction Treatment Can Help
Sandra can help you develop the skills to better manage a sex addiction. The addictive thoughts and behaviors must be channeled into more appropriate, healthier activities.

- Healthy Sex. Sex is a normal, healthy part of life. You can learn new patterns of sexuality.
