Stuck in the Cycle?

A man in a plaid shirt sits by the water looking distressed, symbolizing stress.

Have you told yourself, “This is the last time…”—only to find yourself slipping back into the same painful patterns?

Have internet blockers, accountability partners, or sheer willpower failed you?

Do you feel like after every relapse you’re starting from square one, wondering if lasting change is even possible?

You’re not alone. And you’re not beyond help.
At Big Valley Therapy, we help individuals and couples across Utah break free from pornography addiction, sexual compulsive behaviors, infidelity, and the devastating impact of betrayal trauma.

The Emotional and Relational Toll of Porn Use, Sexual Behaviors, or Infidelity

Is the shame of your porn use or sexual behaviors weighing you down and disconnecting you from the people you love?

Are you watching your partner grow distant, hurt, or betrayed by choices you never intended to make?

Has your struggle escalated—from porn use into emotional affairs, infidelity, or paying for sex?

Has separation or divorce become a real threat?

These aren’t just “problems to fix.” They are emotional wounds, unmet needs, and patterns rooted in pain—not who you truly are.

When Willpower Isn’t Enough: Sex Addiction Therapy in Utah

A frustrated man in a red shirt holds his head in stress against a neutral background.

Are you exhausted from the internal battle—the guilt, shame, and overwhelming urges that feel impossible to control?

Do the temptations always seem stronger than your intentions?

Are you tired of feeling out of control while also watching the person you love pull away?

Lasting change doesn’t come from white-knuckling.
Healing comes from safety, compassion, emotional regulation, and understanding the deeper roots of your behaviors.

Healing Pornography Addiction, Infidelity & Betrayal Trauma

At Big Valley Therapy, we specialize in healing:

  • Pornography addiction

  • Sex addiction and sexual compulsive behaviors

  • Infidelity, emotional affairs, and sexual betrayal

  • Betrayal trauma for partners

  • Relationship distress created by secrecy, lying, or acting out

  • The shame spiral and self-blame cycle

These struggles are not about being broken.
They’re often tied to childhood wounds, attachment injuries, loneliness, anxiety, and unmet emotional needs.

Whether you’re the one struggling or the partner trying to heal, we create a safe, grounded, and compassionate space for true restoration.

Our approach blends powerful, evidence-based methods, including:

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to repair attachment injuries

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) to heal emotional wounds and shame-driven parts

  • EMDR Therapy to process trauma, betrayal, and addictive loops

  • Mindfulness-informed emotional work (when helpful) to reconnect with the body and restore internal balance

This work is far deeper than simply stopping behaviors.
It’s about healing the roots, building emotional regulation, and restoring trust, intimacy, and connection.
