We treat the underlying emotional and psychological drivers of addiction for Gambling Addiction, Sex Addiction, Pornography Addiction and Gaming Addiction, not just the behavior itself.

Your story is important. Your recovery is important. This is the foundation of our relationship with our clients.
We care about your challenges and helping you to overcome them.
What Are Process Addictions?
Process Addictions, also known as behavioral addictions, occur when a person becomes compulsively engaged in a behavior despite harmful consequences. Unlike substance use disorders, Process Addictions do not involve drugs or alcohol, but they activate the same reward pathways in the brain, reinforcing patterns of craving, loss of control, and emotional dependence.
These behaviors often begin as coping mechanisms for stress, trauma, loneliness, or emotional pain. Over time, the brain learns to rely on the behavior for relief or escape, making it increasingly difficult to stop without support.
At Hope & Healing Addiction Treatment Centers in Mesa, AZ, we treat Process Addictions with the same seriousness, clinical expertise, and compassion as substance addictions, because their impact on mental health, relationships, and daily functioning can be just as profound.
Common Characteristics of Process Addictions
While each person’s experience is unique, many individuals struggling with Process Addictions experience:
‣ Persistent urges or cravings to engage in the behavior
‣ Loss of control over frequency or duration
‣ Escalation of the behavior to achieve the same emotional effect
‣ Feelings of shame, guilt, or secrecy surrounding the behavior
‣ Continued behavior despite negative emotional, relational, or financial consequences
‣ Difficulty stopping even when the desire to change is strong
These patterns are not signs of weakness or moral failure, they are learned survival responses, often shaped by trauma, attachment wounds, or untreated mental health conditions.
The Role of Trauma and Emotional Regulation
Process Addictions are frequently rooted in unresolved trauma, Anxiety, Depression, or chronic stress. Behaviors such as gambling, compulsive sexual activity, or excessive gaming may temporarily numb emotional discomfort, provide distraction, or create a sense of control.
Our trauma-informed approach recognizes
‣ The behavior served a purpose at one time
‣ Healing requires understanding the emotional “why,” not just stopping the action
‣ Safety, trust, and empowerment are essential for sustainable recovery
By addressing the underlying emotional drivers, clients can learn healthier ways to regulate emotions, manage stress, and reconnect with themselves and others.
Process Addictions and Dual Diagnosis
Many individuals with Process Addictions also experience co-occurring mental health conditions
‣ Anxiety Disorders
‣ Depression
‣ PTSD or Complex Trauma
‣ ADHD
‣ Mood or Personality Disorders
At Hope & Healing, we specialize in Dual Diagnosis Treatment, meaning we treat both the addiction and the mental health condition simultaneously. This integrated approach reduces relapse risk and supports long-term stability. Let Hope & Healing Addiction Treatment Centers in Mesa, AZ help you with the path to recovery today!
Why Professional Treatment Matters
Process Addictions often worsen over time when left untreated. Without addressing the emotional and neurological patterns driving the behavior, attempts to stop may lead to cycles of relapse, shame, and isolation.
Professional treatment provides
‣ Clinical structure and accountability
‣ Evidence-based therapies such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, and trauma processing
‣ Relapse prevention and coping skills development
‣ Supportive peer connection and guidance
Recovery is not about eliminating desire, it’s about building a life where the behavior is no longer needed to cope.
