OUR STORY
Brannon Patrick is a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist. He has been practicing for 10 years and runs a practice with a partner and a growing number of therapists in Lehi, Ut. Brannon started his psychology work early in the addiction arena both substance addiction and sex addiction. He could see growing challenge addiction had on families and had an early interest in making an impact. After progressing through the models of addiction and codependence he was drawn further into the relationship aspects of the addiction. This led him to work with 1,000's of couples in restoring and improving their marriages and relationships. As betrayal trauma became an understanding in the support for sex addiction Brannon latched on and dug into the key aspects of the model allowing greater validation to be felt by the partner of addicts. Still, Brannon continues to develop understandings and clarities in the recovery process that extend beyond the traditional models.

And the development of online resources and programs that clarify the recovery process for both sides of the sex addiction relationship. His tone is always direct but gentle. Many say he is perceptive beyond what you would expect. His intuition provides validation along with encouragement to own your side and be the partner who draws the best out of your partner.
