At Restorations Therapy Center, we provide personalized recovery plans to create the most helpful recovery process for each person. The process often involves weekly individual therapy in addition to weekly therapy groups, and highly encouraged participation in a twelve step group. Our center exists to provide the highest level of treatment for sexual addiction recovery. Therefore, our program involves a high level of commitment for true recovery. It may seem like high commitment, but our philosophy is that true recovery comes from a deep desire to change and grow, manifested through commitment to recovery.
