Iron Ridge Recovery

Texas’s only intensive outpatient program (IOP) built exclusively for compulsive sexual behavior, Iron Ridge Recovery serves adult men in Austin, with secure telehealth available across Texas. The program serves high-functioning men whose primary mental health condition presents through compulsive sexual behavior. Conditions treated include compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD), pornography addiction, sexual compulsivity, sex addiction, love addiction, online sex addiction and cybersex, and infidelity and serial affairs.

Creating Room for Change

The 8-week IOP provides 9–12 clinical hours each week through group therapy, individual therapy, and psychoeducation. The clinical team uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), internal family systems (IFS)-informed work, and psychodynamic and attachment-based approaches. Iron Ridge Recovery may also address co-occurring anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and attachment trauma.

Support for Partners and Ongoing Recovery

The center also provides Partner & Family programming. Partners receive individual therapy and weekly clinical group support using the multidimensional partner trauma model (MPTM). Recovery coaching provides non-clinical support for men before or after IOP with 2 weekly sessions, daily secure-message check-ins, goal setting, accountability, and planning for high-risk situations. The Austin clinic uses a private entrance and has no shared waiting room for confidentiality.
