I'm pretty well known for developing a simple, theory-neutral and universally applicable way of assessing any form of s*xual behavior for problmatic aspects in a way that does not use labels. Since partners of chronic betrayers sometimes expect me to work exclusively within the s*x addiction model I decided to write this short article explaining my approach. https://www.billherring.com/important-note-betrayed-partners-about-my-treatment-approach

I have re-tooled my practice to now provide online individual and group counseling. The unintended opportunity is that suddenly my services are available to anyone in the state of Georgia who may be overusing p**n during this time of anxiety and social distancing.

I can now help people across Georgia who are struggling with s*xual behavior that conflicts with their commitments, values and/or self-control. I glad that I can offer individual and group therapy to men in Georgia looking to heal, grow and learn from their p**n overuse and other problematic s*xual behavior patterns.

Online counseling for p**n addiction and other unhealthy p**n use is available to people in Georgia.
