Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
I have worked with sex addicts who are addicted to online pornography and other objects and
gadgets like dolls or other paraphernalia. Often deep work in the past can uncover early sexual abuse or other early experiences that have led to the addiction. This can lead to letting go of the
addiction. Please feel free to call for a consultation: 301-229-8000
