Not Alone Women's Group for Partners of Sex Addict

Talking about sex is uncomfortable! But what do you do when your partner is struggling with pornography and/or a sex addiction? For partners, the topic of sex often becomes a source of pain, shame and isolation. Partners frequently ask, "Who can I talk to?" and "Who can understand what I'm going through?" "Not Alone" is a place where women can share with each other about the trauma, grief and loss of intimate betrayal. It is specifically designed to provide a safe space for women who are impacted by their partner's struggle to find community, hope and empowerment.
