The Reclaim Intensive
Attachment-based, trauma-informed help for problematic pornography use & compulsive sexual behavior.
A private weekend intensive for men and women whose pornography use or sexual behavior has come to feel compulsive — out of step with their values and hard to stop. We work with the real driver — a dysregulated nervous system and an unmet need for connection — not just the behavior.
Reclaim is our individual intensive for taking back your life from compulsive sexual behavior and problematic pornography — a focused, standalone path, distinct from our Sex Addiction Intensive.

When it feels bigger than willpower
This intensive is for you if pornography or sexual behavior has quietly taken more time, attention, and self-respect than you want it to — and trying harder hasn’t worked.
It escalated over time
What used to be occasional now feels harder to control, and the content or frequency has crept upward.
It clashes with your values
The behavior doesn’t fit who you want to be, and the gap leaves shame in its wake.
You’ve tried to stop alone
Blockers, promises, and willpower haven’t held — because the real need underneath was never met.
It’s affecting connection
Secrecy, distance, or a partner’s pain has made closeness harder to reach.
We treat the driver, not just the behavior
Most programs manage the symptom with rules and willpower. The Reclaim Intensive goes underneath — to the dysregulated nervous system and the unmet need for connection that the behavior was trying to soothe.
Attachment-based & trauma-informed
We start by settling your body and nervous system, because a threatened system can’t change on willpower alone. Secure connection — not shame — is the medicine.
Pornography-specific
We name what general programs skip: novelty and escalation, the pull of devices and privacy, and the particular shame of “why can’t I just stop.”
No labels, no disease talk
You are not broken and you are not “an addict.” This is a learned coping pattern — and patterns can be changed. Progress is measured by alignment with your values, not perfection.
The STEADY Method™, tailored to you
Every LifeWorks intensive follows the STEADY Method™ — our own attachment-based, trauma-informed arc. Individually, it moves like this.
S — Stabilize & Settle
Safety and nervous-system calm first — simple tools that settle the body so change becomes possible.
T — Tell the Truth
Honest, contained understanding of your pattern — the triggers, the loop, and the need underneath — without shame or graphic detail.
E — Ease the Impact
Facing, gently, how the behavior has affected you and the people you love — and letting that matter.
A — Address & Own
Real accountability and self-compassion, and beginning to heal the trauma and unmet needs that fueled the pattern.
D — Draw Close
Rebuilding closeness — with yourself and others — through authenticity, honesty, and presence.
Y — Yours to Keep
A daily rhythm, a support network, and a return plan so a hard day never becomes a spiral.
A weekend that becomes a way forward
We begin with a private assessment so the weekend targets what actually drives your pattern — and you leave with a plan you can run for six months.
A private, personalized understanding
A clear picture of what drives your pattern — the triggers, the loop, and the need underneath.
Tools you can use the same night
Nervous-system and in-the-moment tools you can put to work right away.
A pornography-specific plan
Device and environment, escalation, and triggers — addressed directly.
Daily anchors and a six-month roadmap
A rhythm to keep the change well beyond the weekend.
A return plan
A setback sends you to your anchors, not back to zero.
A confidential path to continue
Ongoing individual or couples support when you want it.
You don’t have to heal this in isolation
When trust has been affected, individual change and relational repair work best together. Partnered clients can pair this intensive with our betrayal-trauma and couples pathways — so the impact is heard and closeness is rebuilt at the hurt partner’s pace. Ask about this in your free consultation.
