Certified Sexual Addiction Recovery Coach
The Sexual Addiction Recovery Coaching (SARC) program is a comprehensive, biblically grounded training designed to equip coaches, ministry leaders, and non-professional counselors with the knowledge and skills to support individuals struggling with sexual addiction. This two-course program offers both foundational and advanced training on topics including compulsive sexual behavior, pornography addiction, trauma, emotional regulation, recovery planning, relationship restoration, and group facilitation.
Rooted in clinical best practices and Christian principles, SARC 101 focuses on understanding the roots and impact of sexual addiction, while SARC 201 prepares coaches to walk alongside individuals, couples, and families in the full journey of healing and restoration. Participants will develop practical strategies, gain theological insight, and learn how to create supportive environments that promote long-term recovery and sexual integrity.
