Our Admission Criteria
Age: Adults (18 years old and older)
Gender: Male
Applicant: Persons who are admitted to the KeyStone Center ECU must have a primary problem with sexually compulsive behavior, sex addiction and/or trauma. Persons with love addiction and co-dependency behaviors are also considered and encouraged to apply. Clients must be physically and cognitively able to participate in the program.
Interactive Disorders
Persons with co-occurring disorders such as, chemical dependency, mood disorders such as bipolar disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder, and self-defeating behaviors are considered as long as sexual compulsivity is present.
*The ECU does not discriminate based on age, gender, sexual orientation, religion, race, color, ancestry or national origin.
Exclusionary Criteria
Unfortunately, we are not equipped to accommodate certain conditions. Persons with severe head injury or intellectual disability may not have the cognitive ability to keep the intense pace of our program’s group work. Case-by-case consideration is applied in these instances. Persons with acute or chronic medical conditions that require skilled nursing care are encouraged to physically stabilize prior to entering treatment. Finally, individuals who are destructive, aggressive or violent and unable to participate in group work with others are unlikely to benefit from our program. The ECU is an open voluntary residential program that cannot accommodate individuals who require constant monitoring or a locked secure environment.
Suggested Items to Bring
