Therapy in Las Vegas
Therapy in Las Vegas for Couples, OCD, and Porn & Sex Addiction
Las Vegas is a city where people carry a lot while appearing fine. Long hours. Reinvention. Privacy. High performance. Actors. Many people function impressively while anxiety, relationship strain, or compulsive behaviors quietly take over the background of their lives.
Nevada has a real shortage of mental health care, especially specialized care. That reality shows up in long waits, high costs, and therapy that stays too surface-level for problems that are anything but. When anxiety becomes obsessive, when intimacy breaks down, or when porn or sexual behaviors start running the show, generic therapy will not do the job. You need a specialist.
That is exactly where my work lives.
I specialize in couples therapy, OCD treatment, and porn and sex addiction because these issues are deeply connected in real life. Anxiety does not stay contained inside one person. OCD often targets relationships, sexuality, morality, or faith. Compulsive sexual behavior is rarely just about sex; it is usually about regulation, avoidance, secrecy, and disconnection.
When these issues are left unaddressed, the cost is not abstract. Marriages erode. Trust collapses. People withdraw, act out, or live with constant doubt and shame. Therapy matters here not because something is “wrong” with you, but because the stakes are real.
Couples Therapy in Las Vegas
For couples, therapy focuses on the patterns that keep you stuck. Many couples talk constantly yet feel emotionally unsafe, unseen, or locked into the same argument over and over. I work actively in session to slow things down, interrupt unhelpful cycles, and help you understand what is actually happening between you.
OCD Treatment in Las Vegas
For OCD, treatment must be specific. Reassurance and over-analysis usually make symptoms worse. The work is about learning how to live with uncertainty without letting fear dictate your choices, especially when OCD attacks what you care about most.
Porn and Sex Addiction Therapy in Las Vegas
For porn and sex addiction, therapy must be both structured and human. Shame does not create change. Avoidance does not protect relationships. I work with individuals and couples to understand the function the behavior serves, take responsibility without collapse, and rebuild integrity and intimacy where possible.
Much of my approach is shaped by years of clinical work and training with couples and individuals navigating anxiety, OCD, and compulsive behaviors in high-pressure environments. I have seen what helps people change and what quietly keeps them stuck. Therapy here is guided by that experience, not trends or platitudes.
FAQ: Therapy in Las Vegas
How do I know this isn’t just well-written therapy language?
Because the work is not about insight or reassurance. It is about changing patterns that show up in real time. If therapy does not change what you do when you are triggered, overwhelmed, or uncertain, it is not doing its job.
What makes you qualified to work with couples, OCD, and sexual compulsivity together?
Because these problems regularly overlap. OCD fuels doubt and reassurance seeking. Compulsive sexual behavior often functions as emotional regulation. Both deeply affect intimacy and trust. Treating them separately misses the system driving the distress.
How is this different from standard talk therapy?
Standard talk therapy often focuses on understanding why you feel the way you feel. This work focuses on what you do next when the feeling shows up. Insight without behavioral change usually leads to frustration, not relief.
What actually happens in a couples session?
I interrupt unproductive cycles in real time. We slow escalation, name what is happening underneath the argument, and practice different responses in session. This is active work, not just reporting.
If OCD targets my relationship or faith, won’t therapy make things worse?
Poorly done therapy can. Proper OCD treatment reduces compulsive thinking and reassurance seeking while helping you live according to your values, even when certainty is unavailable.
What results should I realistically expect?
Less reactivity. Fewer compulsive behaviors. More clarity. Improved emotional safety. And the ability to make decisions without being ruled by fear or avoidance. Respond – choose. Do not react.
