Salt Lake City's New Roads Treatment Centers is Launching a New Pornography ... - Benzinga

New Roads Treatment Centers is expanding its addiction-recovery programs to include a pornography addiction treatment program.

Orem, Utah (Vocus/PRWEB) December 31, 2010

After their first successful year of treating drug and alcohol addiction, New Roads Treatment Centers has seen a growing need for a pornography addiction treatment program and is launching this new program with the start of the new year. The center is also opening a non-profit entity that will help raise money to pay for individuals that need treatment and cannot afford it.

An overwhelming ten percent of adults admit to having an online pornography addiction.* With Internet use becoming more readily available on cell phones, lap tops and other wireless devices, it is reasonable to assume this number will continue to rise. The center has seen a great need for a program to treat this particular addiction. They have set up a group program dedicated to utilizing therapeutic culture, science based treatment, and a licensed, caring staff to help individuals on all levels, who are struggling with pornography or substance addiction.

Just like drug and alcohol addiction, pornography addiction is an addiction that must be treated physically, emotionally, and mentally. To aid the New Roads Treatment Centers with their new program, they have recently hired three new therapists; Sage O'Brien, LSAC, MSW, CSW; Jordan Harmon, CSW; and Aubrey Riddle, LCSW. In addition, they have had new training to aid them in understanding and treating pornography addiction. The entire staff, both clinical and support staff, just completed intensive DBT training from the DBT center of Michigan. DBT is a Dialectical Behavioral Treatment therapy program. Which, in recent years, has been used to treat a broad range of symptoms, including: mood disorders (depression & bipolar), anxiety disorders, eating disorders, substance abuse, self-harm in teens, and couples and relationship conflict.

“Though these issues can be overwhelming for individuals and families I have consistently been reinforced in my belief of the resilience of the human spirit and the reality of healing. I find great satisfaction in growing as a person as I am privileged to join with others who are on their own path of growth.” -Jordan Harmon, CSW

New Roads Treatment Centers offers a group of programs dedicated to utilizing therapeutic culture, science-based treatment, and simple caring to help individuals recover from addiction and emotional pain. Their staff is empathetic, respectful, and knowledgeable. More importantly, they understand and respect the sensitive, confidential, and private nature of treating the disease of addiction. Through each step of the program New Roads' clients achieve a sense of accomplishment and a renewed positive outlook on life and freedom from addiction. Feeling trapped behind the pornography or sex addiction is something that millions of individuals suffer through every day. With work and dedication there is treatment and complete recovery from these behaviors.
