Facebook, Twitter, mySpace, and YouTube have created a whole new world of possibilities for sex addicts to act-out sexual fantasies. While the majority of individuals using social media will not have problems as a result of their use, others will. Sexting, live video streaming, and GPS hook-up apps for Smart phones add to the possibilities of immediate gratification and expansion of sexual possibilities for addicts. Virtual sex outlets, once a fantasy of the future, are now here and accessible to those willing to alter the paradigm of what they consider "normal" sexuality. 

Even those who may never have considered having an affair or hiring an escort,  may find themselves unable to resist the intrigue and novelty that the new technologies offer. We carefully help clients sort out what is common and normal from what is addictive or problematic and support them in finding ways to regain a sense of control.

Teens are quickly becoming an emerging group developing sexual problems associated with use of social networking and related new technology. We offer at Kenneth M. Adams and Associates a program for teens and their families to help sort the best treatment course.
