Iron Ridge is Texas’s only intensive outpatient program built exclusively for compulsive sexual behavior — in-person in Austin and by secure telehealth across Texas. Compulsive sexual behavior carries a specific weight: the shame is different, the relational damage runs deeper, and the partner’s experience matters as much as the client’s. Programs that treat CSBD alongside unrelated presentations rarely have room to hold that weight. Iron Ridge does — because that’s the only thing we do.
Iron Ridge Recovery is a primary mental health intensive outpatient program that only sees clients whose presenting concern is compulsive sexual behavior. The clinical arc is aimed at the mental health conditions that manifest in CSBD — obsessive-compulsive disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, attachment trauma, and adjustment pictures. The men we treat carry an elevated shame barrier and, in roughly nine of ten cases, a partner in acute distress. Iron Ridge is built for that population and only that population.
Three programs sit under this hub. The men's IOP is the primary clinical service. The Partner & Family Program is a concurrent, dedicated clinical track for the partner in shock, directed by Roxcy Brown, LMFT-Associate, CCPS-C (supervised by Billy Myers, LMFT-S, Texas license 201183). Recovery Coaching is a non-clinical service for men who do not meet IOP threshold and for IOP graduates in the continuity phase. The three fit together as a system of care — they are not interchangeable.
Men's IOP · Clinical
Treatment (Men's IOP)
Primary mental health intensive outpatient program for men whose presenting concern is compulsive sexual behavior (ICD-11 6C72). Eight-week clinical arc, 9–12 clinical hours per week, in-person in Austin and virtual across Texas. Comorbid OCD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and adjustment pictures are the mental health conditions the arc is aimed at.
Partners · Clinical
Partner & Family Program
Trauma-informed clinical care for the partner in acute distress. Roughly nine in ten of our clients arrive with a partner in shock. Directed by Roxcy Brown, LMFT-Associate, CCPS-C (supervised by Billy Myers, LMFT-S, Texas license 201183), using the Multidimensional Partner Trauma Model. The partner is treated as a client with her own clinical picture, not as an adjunct to the primary client's care.
Recovery Coaching · Non-clinical
Recovery Coaching
CSAT-informed Recovery Coaching for men in Austin: pre-IOP support for sub-clinical presentations and post-program continuity for IOP graduates. Two sessions per week plus reasonable daily contact. Non-clinical service — coaching does not diagnose or treat any mental health condition and is not a substitute for therapy.
Who the IOP is for
Adult men whose presenting concern is compulsive sexual behavior meeting the ICD-11 6C72 criteria, with a comorbid mental health condition that the arc is aimed at. Medically and psychiatrically stable enough for an outpatient level of care. Able to attend 9 to 12 clinical hours per week for eight weeks. In-person in Austin or virtual from anywhere in Texas.
Who the IOP is not for
Active psychosis. Acute bipolar mood episode. Active substance-primary treatment need. Active suicidality requiring an inpatient or higher level of care. These pictures require a higher acuity setting than an outpatient program can hold, and we refer.
