Understanding Sexual Addictions and Disorders

Sexual addictions and disorders can cause significant distress and negatively impact one's quality of life. It is essential to foster a compassionate and non-judgmental environment when discussing these topics, as they are highly sensitive in nature. At Naomi S Korn, LCSW, we strive to create a safe space where individuals can seek guidance and support.

Causes

Sexual addictions and disorders can arise from a variety of factors, including psychological, biological, and environmental influences. They may be influenced by childhood trauma, past sexual abuse, or one's upbringing. Additionally, biological factors such as hormonal imbalances or genetic predispositions can also contribute to the development of these conditions.

Symptoms

The symptoms of sexual addictions and disorders can vary widely, making it crucial to consult a professional for an accurate diagnosis. Some common symptoms include:

  • Compulsive sexual behaviors
  • Obsessive thoughts related to sexual activities
  • Inability to control sexual urges
  • Constant preoccupation with sexual thoughts
  • Engaging in risky sexual behaviors
  • Feelings of shame, guilt, or anxiety related to sexual actions
  • Relationship difficulties stemming from sexual behaviors

Treatment Options
