Course Info
Sessions 1-3 – Facing the reality of sex and porn addiction
In these first sessions we explore what sex and porn addiction really is and why it hurts partners so much. We’ll look at some common myths and misconceptions and explore how the different types of disclosure can compound the pain that partners feel. We’ll also try and answer the crucial question – how do you know if it’s an addiction or an excuse?
From session 4, we begin learning how to SURF…
Sessions 4-6 – Survive the trauma
In these sessions we start to look at the 4 steps of recovery of SURF. We’ll look at the most common reactions to discovery and disclosure and you’ll receive guidance and practical strategies for managing difficult emotions. Our focus will be on establishing emotional stability by managing the urgent questions and establishing boundaries and accountability.
Sessions 7-9 – Understand the Cycle of Reaction
Most partners find themselves struggling with triggers that can catapault them from coping one minute to being in free fall the next. These practical sessions will help you to recognise your reaction cycle and develop ways of avoiding triggers whenever possible and developing positive ways of managing the unavoidable ones.
Sessions 10-12 – Repair self-identity and self-esteem
Relational betrayal can have a devastating impact on partner’s self-identity and self-esteem. These sessions will help you to feel grounded again by getting you back in touch with other essential elements that define you. You’ll also learn some practical strategies to improve communication and rebuild your self confidence.
Sessions 13-16 – Face the future
Our final sessions focus on the future. Can the relationship survive? Will you ever be able to trust again? With lots of practical strategies, you’ll learn how to recognise when your partner is in true recovery and how you can begin to face the future, whatever it may hold.

“ "The course was presented in a way that was informative without being convoluted or confusing. It has given me understanding of how to let go which is information that had somehow passed me by even after 2 years of therapy. I wish this course had been available at the beginning of my recovery journey, but I’m appreciative that it is available now, not only for myself but for every partner who needs validation of their pain and how it doesn’t have to be forever. Highly recommend." "A great course to take time for myself, while better understanding my partner behaviour and shape a better future."
