Internet addiction is when a person spends a significant amount of time using the internet, so much that it interrupts their daily life.
Available Treatment Options
Counseling interventions therapists use may include behavioral techniques that help individuals use the internet less frequently, such as goal setting, thought stopping, and practicing alternative behaviors to lessen the frequency of use.
The goal of therapy is to reduce the behavior, so people may benefit from cognitive, behavioral, or environmental changes depending on their specific situation.

Sometimes we struggle with feelings of sadness, anxiety and shame, or we feel stuck in our personal or professional lives. That can cause us to compare ourselves to other people, or to tell ourselves “I should be able to do this on my own! It's wrong to feel this way.” This kind of thinking rarely eases our pain, and often makes us feel more isolated and helpless. Therapy can help you break thi...
I conceptualize people's lives as being like a recipe. If you (or I) put the ingredients into the bowl, we get a predictable final product- either good, bad or mixed. If you work with me we will figure out the good and the bad ingredients of your recipe. Some ingredients are beyond your control, some are not. We will then figure out how you can keep the bad ingredients out and the good ingredie...
