This is exactly what a parent (We will call her Sarah) thought when she walked in on her son, who she thought was doing homework. The utter shock and horror grasped Sarah and she just sat there staring, not knowing what to do.
She wanted to yell, “What are you doing?” but she couldn’t, her voice escaped her, so she left the room to deal with it later.
Sarah immediately did what any mom would do and started looking for a way to help her son. She found so many people and places saying they do counseling but was appalled at some of the places she visited.
In her own words, “I didn’t think the therapists cared about my son, they only cared about my money.”
Discovering your son or daughter struggles with porn is frustrating and confusing.
Frustrated, Confused and Want to Cry!
After this, she felt very frustrated, confused and just wanted to cry.
She called a trusted friend (we will call her Jane) and found out that Jane’s son struggled with porn too.
Sarah asked Jane, “What are you doing to help him?“
Jane shared her entire story about how her son was skipping school, socially disconnecting, spending hours on the computer and she (Jane) thought he was doing homework. She continued on about how she thought school must be tough but everything started to slip. He started becoming depressed, angry, socially awkward and didn’t want to do anything.
Porn addiction is real.
Jane said, “I was just as confused as you were, but fortunately, I found Utah Family Therapy while searching online and decided to give them a call.
They asked me to bring my son in for a full assessment and for some porn addiction counseling. After the assessment, they suggested a customized approach for him. It has now been several years. He went on a mission. He’s now married and is doing very well. “
Jane told her about Utah Family Therapy and our approach. Thank you, Jane, for trusting us to work with Sarah’s son and Sarah.
In Jane’s words: “You Saved My Son”

TESTIMONIALS:
Overcome Debilitating Behaviors
“As an ecclesiastical leader, I many times have felt inadequate when there is a need for in depth counseling. I recognize the need for professional intervention but have never been a big proponent of professional counseling either.
Then I was introduced to Utah Family Therapy. I was referred by someone who had used them numerous times with great results. I attended an orientation to see what this program was all about and how it could work where others had failed.
Sitting through the orientation was very informative. The information provided was clear and made sense to me. It helped me understand why we do the things we do and better yet, it provided a way to deal with behaviors that we want to stop.
Since my introduction to this program, I have seen the change it has made in lives. It provides confidence where it is lacking as individuals are able to overcome behaviors that have been debilitating in the past.
I highly recommend Utah Family Therapy… I am confident you will quickly see the difference from other programs, I did.”
“Your presentation was AWESOME today! It was perfect. Exactly what I needed to hear. That’s why I went to it twice. It is evident your love for what you do in helping others understand and heal.”
Proven Value
“Rob (and his clinic, Utah Family Therapy) has worked with several Young Men from my ward who have dealt with issues from pornography use to other extreme mental and emotional issues. He has been a significant help getting many of them ready for missions in a relatively short amount of time. Rob meets the needs of each client in the place they are at and understands how to incorporate the atonement into his practice. He helps his clients learn how to access the atonement and spirituality for themselves. I had always been skeptical of the help that any therapist could give to someone with an addiction, but Rob has proven his value to me and I will continue to send members of my ward to him for help with pornography and other addictions.”
Counseling for Porn Addiction Was Priceless
“These counseling sessions were literally priceless! Thank you for everything you have done for our family! Utah Family Therapy is doing a marvelous work! We were hesitant to come in initially but quickly realized how right we were taking the step. I wish there was more I could do to get the word out to other parents! The way you educate and incorporate therapeutic principles alongside spiritual principles is amazing. Every parent and their teens need to hear this. Thank you with all my heart for the truths you have taught us and (our son) in a kind, caring manner. Please anonymously quote me and hopefully, it will give courage to many others to take the step no matter where they are at.”
Mission … Never Thought That Would Happen
•”Hey, thank you so much for all of your help. I can’t believe how far I have come since I first came to your office! I never would have imagined how this would change my life for the better. I couldn’t even stay sober much more than a day. Things are looking up and better than ever before. Thank you so so so much for your help and support. Without you, God, and my family I would never be able to be here and experience this joy. A mission?..are you kidding me!? Never thought that would happen, now I leave tomorrow! Thanks again. I will be eternally grateful for your help. Please tell everyone that if they struggle with an addiction to get in to see you right now!”

“Dude, you were right. Doing therapy and getting sober while I was younger taught me how to communicate and be better for my wife.”
A Mission President Stated,
“I don’t know exactly what you do but it’s working. I asked Elder (name removed) about why he was doing so well compared to other missionaries with the same struggle and he said it was because of what you taught him. Keep doing whatever you’re doing.”

“I finally found the help that I’ve been searching for. …my addiction was consuming and controlling my life. For the first time in over 10 years, I’ve been sober for over a year.

“Over the past nine years, we have seen six counselors and have talked to countless leaders about my husband’s problem. Some of the counselors blamed me; some blamed my husband and told me to leave him. One scratched the surface by giving us rules for communicating with each other but he didn’t know how to help with my husband’s pornography problem.
Things became very bad between my husband and me in 2005. After struggling for six years to try to figure this out, I had all but given up on my … Read more

Outlet to Share Feelings Fears and Successes
“… I have had a problem with pornography for many years and had tried in vain to deal with it on my own. Because of the negative aspect of such a problem, it was something that I was too ashamed to talk to anyone else about, including my parents, friends, and even my wife.
I went to my ecclesiastical leader on occasion to talk to him and to get counsel and guidance. Most of the counsel I received was that I should read my scriptures more, pray har… Read more

“These tools work with sexual addiction, but also work with a variety of issues one could have in life be it overeating, raising children, being a better spouse, or being a true disciple of Christ. The tools learned in therapy do work.”

“Before reading the manual I wondered if I was crazy or not. No matter how many times I would swear off the addiction I would go back to it. My actions filled my life with utter despair. I had lost all hope of ever living a sober life. I really hated myself and felt I was good for nothing. When I began to understand how the limbic part of the brain works and gained information on how to deal with it my hope resurfaced. Understanding the two-part brain makes so much sense and gives so much hope. … Read more

“I’ve been lucky as I’ve prayed for the Lord’s help to be clean of this addiction. I had a bishop be firm, but loving and merciful, as well as mindful of me, actively seeking me out to see how I was doing with “things”. Months later after a confession, he would call and check up on me. Not just one month later, not two or three, but six months later, a year later. Talking about it openly, regularly in therapy has also been a huge help and major vehicle for change. ”
