While the group inherently is supportive, this group focuses on helping members practice having new experiences communicating and relating to one another on a weekly basis by expressing thoughts and feelings in the here and now in a group setting. Many members have never had this experience in their adult life and find group work invaluable.

Gay Men Recovery: Sex Addiction/sex fused w/drugs
![Photo of Gilbert McCurdy, MBA, LCSW-R, CSAT, SEP, Clinical Social Work/Therapist](https://photos.psychologytoday.com/db3129ef-7e50-4d9d-90b2-0f7707a7384b/1/320x400.jpeg)
Group therapy is a very effective modality for treating people recovering from sex addiction (aka Out-of-Control Sexual Behavior-OCSB) fused with drug and/or alcohol abuse. Attending a weekly group with other gay men can break the shame/isolation & provide structure while trying to make changes. Group work is also a forum to practice connecting with other gay men which can help facilitate a sense of responsibility for one's behavior while working towards recovering from substance abuse and defining what sexual health means for each member.
