WELCOME TO AFFIRMOTIVE SEX ADDICTION AUSTRALIA PRIVATE PROFESSIONAL COUNSELLING AND SEX THERAPY

Affirmotive Sex Addiction Australia, or ASAA, was established to provide accurate information and psychosexual education for all Australians and their families who suffer the effects of Compulsive Sexual Behaviour Disorder (CSBD), commonly called Sex Addiction or Hyper-Sexuality, including Pornography Addiction, Masturbation Addiction, Love Addiction, and Sexual Fetish Behaviour.

In this connexion we provide highly specialised professional counselling and clinical sex therapy for individuals and couples of all gender and sexual orientations, who are affected by sexual addiction.

Our counselling encompasses permanently stopping the destructive cycle of sexual addiction by focusing on understanding, and healing, the connection between underlying psychological structures of unresolved complex emotions or trauma, and sexual addictive behaviour responses as a compulsive coping mechanism.

SEX THERAPY, SEXUALITY AND SEXUAL HEALTH COUNSELLING 

Sex therapy, sexuality counselling, and sexual health counselling are a vital part of ASAA’s comprehensive sex addiction treatment plan.

While our sex therapy and sexuality counselling focuses on restoring healthy sexual integrity, enjoyable sexuality, intimate relationships, and responsible expression of sex, our sexual health counselling is offered to assist with male and female sexual dysfunctions in sexual addiction, including erectile dysfunction, painful sex, undesirable sex, sexual consent issues, unsafe sex, and STI counselling.

 

Our sex therapist is a specifically trained professional counsellor who is qualified to treat and manage your sexual concerns.

COUNSELLING SEX ADDICTION, BETRAYAL TRAUMA & SPOUSAL SUPPORT 

In our pursuit of helping sexual addicts and their spouses with coming to terms with the trauma of their sexually addicted past, we provide person tailored counselling treatments for our sexually addicted clients, and explicitly person-sensitive betrayal trauma counselling for their spouses who’s lives are interrupted or destroyed by the emotional, psychological, physical, and financial consequences of their partner’s sexual  betrayals.
