Therapy Options

Thinking about therapy?

The Pivotal Recovery course is a strong standalone option and for many, it’s enough. If therapy isn’t accessible to you right now, whether due to cost, time, or personal preference, it’s important to know that meaningful change is still possible through the course alone.

But if you’ve found your way to this page, you might be wondering whether it’s time to go beyond self-help resources like Pivotal Recovery. Maybe you’ve already started the course and want to supplement it with professional support or perhaps you’re drawn to a more personalised approach from the start. Whatever brings you here, therapy and counselling can offer guidance, clarity, and accountability.

Below are two trusted options that we recommend:

The Laurel Centre

Founded by Dr Paula Hall, The Laurel Centre specialises in helping individuals and couples affected by problematic sexual behaviour. They offer:

  • Individual therapy (for those struggling with the behaviours and for partners)
  • Couples counselling
  • Online recovery courses and residential treatment
  • Support groups for partners

Not sure what you need? Their Talk to a Therapist service is a helpful first step to explore your options with a qualified professional.
