With decades of experience in this speciality, I have many styles and approaches to therapy for those who sexually act out, but one thing that comes to mind right now is me helping clients remove their chaos and consequence creating self deception. In the service of their acting out their sexual misbehavior, my clients have deceived others, not a pretty fact, but the reality nonetheless, and they themselves often recognize that fact very easily. www.sexuallycompulsive.com What is less obvious to those with sexual misbehavior issue, is how they have been deceiving themselves in order to allow themselves to act out behaviors what will likely lead to painful consequences that are not even close to worth the risks the client was taking. Correcting this self deception, a narrow specific set of self deception type ideas around their sexual misbehavior, seems universally appreciated by my clients, as it is so directly connected to them learning how to not act these behaviors out.

My personality influences my approach to therapy in that I am a direct but kind person, and often the client comes to me confused by their own sexual misbehaviors, and they show up to treatment needing to be met with a simple and direct style. A way of communicating that does not need much interpretation as to what the clinician is saying. As a person I have always been open, with no airs or pretensions, and this personality trait seems to help clients get their bearings after the chaos and or consequences that they recently made for themselves. My clients have engaged in chronic affairs, sexual. misconduct, illegal pornography, or other embarrassing behaviors that should be addressed by the clinician in a direct but compassionate style, which is typically how my personality has me interact with persons. My 31 years work at this specific issue, combined with my open and very direct personality style, in my opinion, seems to have very uncomfortable and feeling shame clients, gain trust in both my abilities at helping them, and their abilities to fix themselves and their life.

I have noticed many themes in my 31 years as a clinical expert in sexual misbehavior. One theme I have seen recurring many times over these decades is that the persons acting out self destructive sexual behaviors seem to have the illusion that they at that moment are being selfish. My superior experience does not lead me to believe my clients have a problem with being selfish. My decades at this specific work has recognize my clients are being self destructive while they are telling themselves, in so many words, that they are being self indulgent. It is interesting that without help, many clients, despite their status as very bright, well paid, high functioning persons who problem solve all day, miss this obvious distinction.
