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.

My practice is centered around helping people reconnect with their inherent goodness. So many of us walk around with a deep sense of unworthiness, a feeling that there's something wrong, and are disconnected from our true selves. This is uncomfortable, painful even. So we try to quiet that feeling with whatever we think will work: food, drugs and alcohol, work, sex, and money. Or, we try to fix...

Therapy is a process of unwinding what is no longer true or helpful, exploring what is most essential and true for us, and...
