OnPoint: 5 Day Intensive
OnPoint, a Healing Place for Men Struggling with Sex Addiction
We have expanded our services. Earlier this month, we launched OnPoint, a 5-Day Intensive Group for men seeking help for sexually compulsive behaviors and underlying trauma. Our 5-Day option opens recovery opportunities for those unable to make 14+ day intensives.
We are located on the Northshore of Chicago. OnPoint is offered online, in our offices, or we can come to you.
Let Us Help You Heal And Be Whole
We start from the inside to gain insight into the causes and conditions of addiction.
Looking beneath the addiction reveals early trauma and unmet needs that contribute to addictive patterns.
We will help you decrease the impact of past trauma in your present life by using interventions that address the whole person.
The Inside Out Process:
Start at the Core
Every addiction has a code; as clients learn to crack that code, Change begins to happen.
Become attuned to your body so that you can decrease the impact of triggers and untangle their connection to past trauma.
Prepare to Live Your Recovery
Create a multi-layered map of trauma, triggers, and recovery.
Learn to use and practice co-regulation in the group as a way of healing early attachment disruptions.
Design a plan for long-term recovery.
Plan for the holidays, by taking care of yourself. Without an addiction, holidays can be stressful. Living in active addictions exacerbates holiday stress for you and your families & friends. OnPoint’s November Intensive can take some of the pressure off you, by committing to your recovery, increasing your ability to effectively respond. You will also receive your personalized plan for recovery.
“It is impossible to understand addiction without asking what relief the addict finds, or hopes to find, in the drug or the addictive behavior.” - Dr. Gabor Mate
For more information or registration, you can email us directly or book a 15 minute appointment here.
Out of concern for the well-being of our clients, we will be conducting all therapy sessions online via phone, Zoom, and our HIPAA-compliant practice management system.

Resources
Sexual Addiction Resources
Sex Addicts Anonymous
A fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other so they may overcome their sexual addiction and help others recover from sexual addiction and dependency. Membership is open to all who share a desire to stop addictive sexual behavior. There is no other requirement. Our common goals are to become sexually healthy and to help other sex addicts achieve freedom from compulsive sexual behavior.
S-Anon International Family Groups
A program of recovery for those who have been affected by someone else’s sexual behavior. S–Anon is based on the Twelve Steps and the Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Sexaholics Anonymous
A fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength, and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover. The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop lusting and become sexually sober. There are no dues or fees for SA membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions.
Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous
A 12-Step Fellowship of men and women who help each other to stay sober. They offer the same help to anyone who hassex addiction or love addiction or both and wants to do something about it. Since S.L.A.A.’s are all addicts themselves, they have a special understanding of each other and the disease. They know what the illness feels like—and they have learned how to recover from it through S.L.A.A’s Twelve Steps.
