Youâre Not Broken. Youâre Hurting. And Youâre Not Alone.
Â
A New Way Forward in Sex Addiction Recovery
If youâre reading this, chances are something inside of you knows itâs time to get help. Maybe youâve tried to quit porn, apps, or secretive sexual behavior beforeâbut nothing seems to stick. Or maybe this is your first time even admitting to yourself that this⊠is bigger than you can handle on your own.
We want you to know:
- Youâre not alone.
- Youâre not beyond help.
- You donât have to do this the way itâs always been done.Â
Â
Â
đ« What Recovery Used to Look Like
You may have already experienced some of the old models of recovery:
-
A therapist whoâs understanding, but once-a-week sessions just arenât enough to keep you on track.
-
12-step meetings that feel repetitive, confusing, or disconnected from your deeper emotional pain.
-
Online resources that feel either too clinical, too âreligious,â or too light to actually work.
-
Inpatient treatment programs that are expensive, isolating, and hard to commit to if you have a family or job.
Weâve been there.
Weâve tried it.
And we decided there had to be a better way.

đ Introducing the E-Hab 9-Week Intensive Outpatient Program
This program is unlike anything else available in the world of sex addiction recovery. Itâs a modern, therapist-led, community-powered experience that blends:
-
Daily support
-
Proven structure
-
Trauma-informed group work
-
Tech that actually helpsânot distracts
-
And most importantly, a complete absence of shame
Â
Â
đ§ So What Makes E-Hab Different?
â Itâs Built Around Real Recovery, Not Just Abstinence
Weâre not just trying to get you to stop behavior. We want to help you understand why you go there in the first place. That means:
-
Learning to regulate your emotions in real-time
-
Understanding the roots of your shame and isolation
-
Building an identity that feels safe, seen, and whole
-
Creating a new, fulfilling sexual visionânot just suppression
Â
â Youâll Be Supported Every DayâNot Just Once a Week
Recovery doesnât happen in a vacuum. It happens in the momentsâwhen youâre tempted, tired, lonely, or anxious. Thatâs why our structure includes:
-
Three 90-minute small group sessions per week
-
Daily connection + support via chat + assignments
-
1-on-1 coaching check-ins
-
Pre-recorded videos that walk you through deep emotional and psychological work
-
Tools for every day: meditation, journaling, action planning, somatic release, connection practices
Â
â Itâs Led by Experts Who Get ItâClinically and Personally
The program was created by Charlene Lewis (LCSW, CSAT, CST), a therapist with over 400 clients in sex addiction recoveryâand a partner of a recovering addict herself.
Itâs co-led by Joshua Lewis (CRSS), a recovered sex addict with 6+ years of sobriety and 21 years in substance recovery. Josh knows firsthand the pain of addictionâand how shame-free, structured support can save your life.
Together, theyâve designed a shame-free, spiritually honest, trauma-informed container that helps you move beyond âtrying harderâ into real emotional freedom.
Â

You donât need more shame. You need structure, connection, and a plan that works.

Keith M - Professional Athlete
Chicago, Il
"They give you the recipe, ingredients, and bake the cake with you over and over again until you get it. I can now bake my own recovery cake. I have my life back. It takes practice: falling down, getting up, and re-applying the tools with a experiential knowledge. The system helped me develop "smart feet", that keep me in recovery."
Javier L - Attorney
Miami, Fl
"These guys saved my marriage, carrier, but most importantly they saved my life. Not only are they masters in the field of sex addiction, they seem to intuitively know what challenges the client faces and communicates what to do, in a no nonsence fashion. Brutally honest, I love this about them. Run, don't walk!"
Giovanni B - Sales Consultant
New York, NY
"I entered into Charlene's group not knowing if it would help. I felt I had tried everything, and NOTHING was working. I am amazed at what I have learned about myself, my addiction, and the new strategies that I can use to stay sober. Shame and powerlessness have given way to a new way of living, with dignity and true intimacy. A big thank you to both of them just doesn’t cover it.
