For some people entering recovery, a focused, multi-day intensive will be the best option for creating long-term sobriety. Intensives are held on a Saturday and Sunday from 9 am to 5 pm in our Chicago offices. Each intensive is facilitated by a certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT) and is individually designed to meet your specific needs. In addition your intensive will provide education about your sex addiction including:
- The neuroscience behind addiction
- Your personal trauma history
- The addictive cycle, including obsessions and rituals
- Family-of-origin
- Addiction interactions
- Sex addiction as an intimacy disorder
- Sobriety and which behaviors trigger relapse
- Preventing relapse
- The 12 steps and why they are necessary
- How denial manifests to support the addictive behavior
Clients consistently report their intensive was one of the best investments they have made in therapy. It is a way of combining six months of work into one concentrated experience.
