About Mark Makinney


My name is Mark Makinney, and as a Pastoral Multiple/Sex Addiction Professional, I help couples struggling with the pain and destruction of sexual addiction find healing, restoration, and peace.

I do this by employing a powerful combination of biblical principles and the proven methods of Patrick Carnes, that together address the real causes of sexual addiction - and bring positive and lasting change for my clients and their families.

For those who commit to my treatment process the results are completely life-changing. Overcoming sexual addiction IS possible, and I'm here to lead you on the journey to real and complete healing.

I look forward to working with you, and am absolutely certain that this can be the start of a new season of hope and victory for you and those you love.

As a professional who works solely with addicts, I have observed certain patterns that point to sexual addiction. Addicts behave in strikingly similar ways and I hope that the following 'signs' or ‘red flags’, will either dispel or support your concerns.

Whether you are struggling with unwanted sexual behaviors, or your partner’s behavior leads you to believe they may be an addict, these two quizzes can provide clarity.

Recovery Process

Image

1.

Initial Assessment

The first meeting is with you as a couple to assess if I am the right provider for you & to learn if you currently have a solid support system in your life. If there is no support, I will offer/provide sponsors for you.

2.

Foundation Stage

This takes 4-6 weeks & involves both partners, requires a complete disclosure (with polygraph if needed), an impact letter from the wife, & a restitution letter from the husband. The final session creates a safety plan for the wife.

3.

Individual Weekly Sessions

I begin to work individually with the husband weekly for 22 weeks. He will uncover the lies that fuel his addiction & face the harm he has created. He will learn how to decrease his need to escape & how to live ‘in the light’.

4.

Group Work

The men I see are required to attend my 13-week foundation groups. The sole focus of my groups is to help men experience real authentic community which is the only effective way to fight.

Hear from others, just like you, who are living in freedom from sexual addiction!

"I had heard of Mark Makinney through church and knew that I needed real help. From our first encounter, I sensed that Mark understood my problem and had a pathway out. It wasn’t an easy journey for me as Mark held firmly to the “No B.S.” doctrine while always pointing me towards my faith. Now after four years of sobriety, I can say that without Mark’s leading I would not have the recovery, freedom and hope that I now enjoy."
