Journey Workshop
An intensive porn and sexual addiction workshop is a meaningful way to get started on your healing journey from addiction. You will learn a lot in a short period of time and you will learn that you are not alone.
Most professionals estimate that someone needs a minimum of 2-3 years in therapy to adequately diagnose and address the issues related to sexual addiction, but attending a workshop provides a huge jumpstart for recovery and lessens the time spent in counseling. Significant research validates the proven effectiveness of a group setting. You’ll see that there is strength in community.
The workshop was incredible. To call it a workshop doesn’t even do it justice, it is a shame-shattering, soul-healing experience… my experience at the workshop was utterly life-changing. I know I walked out of your center on Saturday a different man.

Topics Covered at The Men’s Journey Workshops
At the MEN’S JOURNEY WORKSHOP, you will learn about the spiritual, emotional, and physical basis for addiction. You will be helped to understand the inter-relationship between sexual sin, bondage, and addiction. You will learn all this in the context of a supportive environment, surrounded by men who understand your struggle, because they have been there themselves. Most importantly, you will leave with not only a new resolve, but a practical plan for sobriety and recovery.
The workshop will bring you much more than new insight. If all we needed for recovery was more knowledge, then reading books about recovery would be enough to solve the problem. Obviously, that is not the case. We need guidance and support that can only come in the context of honest and open interactions. The size of our workshop small groups allows ample time for questions and discussion, even in the large group presentations. Keep in mind that unlike other programs, we offer an “intensive” workshop, not just a seminar.
Here is our promise: Due to the focused and intensive nature of the workshop, as well as the expertise of the facilitators and counselors, attendees make great strides forward in their recovery. In fact, almost without exception, men who attend describe this workshop as “life-changing.” Our experience is that men make more progress in the three-day workshop than they make from 6 to 12 months of weekly therapy with an individual counselor.
