“We recognize that struggles with sex and pornography carry a heavy burden of shame and stigmatization, and our program is designed to restore self-worth and belonging.” – Michael Lazar, Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT)

The Ranch Tennessee, renowned mental health and addiction treatment center, has relaunched its men’s sex and love addiction program. The Sexual Recovery Program at the Ranch provides a highly structured, evidence-based treatment in a residential, gender-specific environment. Located on The Ranch’s secluded 2,000-acre campus outside of Nashville, Tennessee, the program focuses on sex and love addiction, problematic pornography use, and the treatment of co-occurring disorders such as substance use, depression, and anxiety.

Located at the facility’s beautiful Swan Creek Ranch, the program offers a safe space for men to heal from the shame and trauma associated with acting-out behaviors, repair relationships damaged by a betrayal of trust, and develop fellowship and connection among men with similar problems. The Swan Creek location, exclusive to clients of the Sexual Recovery Program, is set miles apart from the Ranch’s main campus and provides peace and privacy away from the bustle of everyday life. Treatment includes individual, group, and specialized therapies such as equine, experiential, art, and trauma/EMDR while incorporating the 30-task model developed by sex addiction treatment pioneer, Dr. Patrick Carnes. In addition, family members and close friends have an opportunity to participate in multi-day family programming.

“Our program focuses on three key components of recovery: Health, Hope and Connection,” says Michael Lazar, Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and Manager of The Sexual Recovery Program. “Our core six-week curriculum is tied to each of these constructs that guide us as we provide individualized treatment to best meet the needs of our clients. We recognize that struggles with sex and pornography carry a heavy burden of shame and stigmatization, and our program is designed to restore self-worth and belonging.”

“Relaunching the men’s sex and love addiction program is a big achievement for The Ranch,” commented Victoria Delheimer, Executive Director of The Ranch Tennessee. “We want to be able to help more people across the behavioral health spectrum, and The Sexual Recovery Program gives us the opportunity to do so. Through this program, we hope to help men work through their shame and rebuild their personal relationships.”

Through the Sexual Recovery Program, The Ranch Tennessee continues its more than 20-year commitment to providing safe space for individuals to overcome mental health disorders, compulsive behaviors, and various addictions.
