President, Hope & Freedom
Over the past several years I have had many requests from clinicians who would like to be trained in my treatment model and have historically gotten more requests for Intensives than I can accept. In fact, I accept less than half of the couples who apply for my treatment program. In addition, numerous potential clients contact me each year asking if I have therapists in their area who are trained in my treatment model so they do not have to travel to our locations in Charlotte or a resort location outside the US.
To date, my schedule has been so full that I have not wanted to slow down to accommodate such training. I have also been reluctant because I am conscious of the value of the Hope & Freedom brand and I did not want my process to be diluted by a therapist not properly trained in all aspects. That all changes now! View the videos below to learn more about our methodology and when you're ready, contact me to for more details or submit an online application to become one of a few select Certified Hope & Freedom Practitioners (CHFPs) specializing in the Hope & Freedom Intensive model for sex addicts and their partners.

intensives for single men:

Understanding the origins of addiction, establishing a foundation for continuing recovery, learning basic tools for remaining free from compulsive behavior, preventing relapse and developing a Personal Recovery Plan.
polygraph used with disclosures:
a tool for establishing trust
How can a partner know that the disclosure they receive is complete and truthful? In this video, I discuss how polygraph can be effectively used as part of the overall treatment process for sexual addiction recovery.
recovery for partners of sex addicts: important aspects of healing
Partners are provided direction in their relationship with a sexual addict. It's important that partners are able to find the help they need, to realize they have been wounded and that those wounds will not heal properly without support.
help! I'm in love with a sex addict:
it's NOT your fault
There are no “sure signs” of a cheating spouse. Diagnosis of sex addiction should be left to a health care professional. However, partners or spouses often observe unusual leading them to believe their partner is hiding something.
