Malta, Idaho – Paradise Creek Recovery, a premier residential treatment facility in south-central Idaho, is dedicated to addressing the stigma surrounding problematic sexual behaviors (PSB). This critical mental health issue is often misunderstood, resulting in many struggling with it to avoid seeking the help they need. To break down this barrier to treatment, Paradise Creek strives to raise awareness and support men affected by PSB.
Understanding PSB
Problematic sexual behaviors, or PSB, are patterns of uncontrollable sexual thoughts, urges, and actions that can seriously affect personal relationships, mental health, and overall quality of life. Studies suggest that up to 20 – 47% of adults grapple with this consuming condition.
“The unfortunate reality is that the public does not widely recognize PSB as a mental health issue. Many assume it is just a moral failing or a lack of self-control, which stops men from seeking help,” explains Dr. Matthew Hedelius, Director at Paradise Creek Recovery. “Yet research reveals that upto 90% of those diagnosed with PSB have been victims of physical, emotional, or sexual abuse themselves. This means PSB is a complex issue rooted in trauma, fractured relationships, and other unresolved issues.”
Comprehensive Treatment Programs
To address the unique nature of PSB, Paradise Creek Recovery offers tailored residential treatment plans that incorporate a range of evidence-based therapeutic methods. These include individual and group psychotherapy, relapse prevention training, and more. At the facility, located in the tranquil Raft River Valley, residents have the opportunity to engage in these therapeutic modalities away from the everyday pressures of life.
Most importantly, Paradise Creek provides a safe, judgment-free environment where residents can share their stories, connect with a community, and build a support network. With a holistic approach to recovery, the facility not only addresses the symptoms of PSB but also targets the underlying issues that contribute to these behaviors.
Raising Awareness
Paradise Creek Recovery is actively working to raise awareness of PSB as a serious mental health issue. Using its online platform and social media, the team shares informative content to educate the public about the realities of PSB and the importance of mental health support. By sharing stories of recovery, the center hopes to foster understanding and encourage more men to seek help without fear of judgment.
