Clinical Supervision for Working with Sex & Porn Addiction and Betrayal Trauma
Specialist support for counsellors and psychotherapists
Working with sexually compulsive behaviours and betrayal trauma can be complex, nuanced, and at times emotionally demanding.
These are not straightforward presentations. They often involve secrecy, shame, trauma responses, relational rupture, and high levels of emotional intensity, both in the client and in the room.
Having the right supervision is essential.
A Space That Understands the Work
This is a supervision space specifically for therapists working with:
- Sex and porn addiction
- Compulsive sexual behaviours
- Disclosure and recovery processes
- Partners experiencing betrayal trauma
- Relationship repair following addiction
You won’t need to explain the basics.
We understand the dynamics, the language, and the complexity of this work.
Why Specialist Supervision Matters
Standard supervision doesn’t always hold the depth or specificity required for this area.
You may find yourself navigating:
- High levels of shame, defensiveness, or minimisation
- Complex disclosures and ethical dilemmas
- Partners in acute trauma responses
- Polarised relationship dynamics
- Your own emotional responses to the material
Specialist supervision provides a space to slow this down, think clearly, and work safely.
How Supervision Can Support You
This space is both reflective and practical. It’s about supporting you as a therapist, not just reviewing cases.
Supervision can help you to:
- Work safely and ethically with complex presentations
- Deepen your understanding of addiction and betrayal trauma
- Navigate disclosure and relational dynamics
- Hold appropriate boundaries and therapeutic stance
- Reflect on your own responses and avoid burnout
- Feel more confident and grounded in your work
Who This Is For
This supervision is suitable for:
- Qualified counsellors and psychotherapists
- Trainees working with sexually compulsive behaviours or betrayal trauma
- Therapists wanting to develop confidence in this area
- Practitioners already working in this field who want specialist input
What You Can Expect
You can expect a thoughtful, containing space where the complexity of your work is understood and respected. There is room to slow things down, reflect, and think clearly about what’s happening both for your client and for you.
