Real Men Experiencing Successful Recovery
Victor
“After going through several therapists in the past two decades, this is by far the best experience I have had. The program is well structured and was designed to produce individual transformation. I can say with certainty that this curriculum is different from anything I've ever experienced. Jake is ready to listen and interested in what I have to say, there is no judgment, but a place of genuine empathy. He's also ready to teach from personal experience, heart-to-heart.”
Jacob
"Before I was with Jake, I felt like I tried everything to overcome but it seemed like no matter what I did, I could never get over it. Jake's program has taught me exactly what I need to overcome for good and have no desire (hence the name). I’m still working everyday and creating the lifestyle that Jake has taught me to be able to be sober long-term. But for now, I just feel so much happier and so much more free. I feel like I can manage my thoughts and feelings and truly control them. My relationships are better since being with Jake and his program. He is one of the nicest dudes you will ever meet. He never judges but always gives amazing advice at the right moments. I totally recommend him!!! You won’t regret it!"

“When I first started meeting with Jake, I was in a dark place, feeling alone, betrayed, and unworthy. I didn’t think I deserved my family’s support. But as I continued our sessions, I began to see myself and my mistakes differently. With Jake’s guidance and tools, I managed to climb out of the hole I had dug for myself. He taught me strategies to develop new habits and thought patterns, helping me shift my perspective. Instead of dwelling on my flaws and mistakes, he showed me how to view them more positively. Having someone to talk to gave me the courage to share my addiction with my family and gain their support. Much of the happiness and fulfillment I experience now is thanks to Jake.”
Oliver
“Addicted to pornography and masturbation for close to 38 years, I have tried to stop multiple times. I looked at my support team - I had my wife, SA brothers, and a Sponsor, but something was missing. Then I heard one of Jake’s podcasts, and he spoke my language. Jake has helped me learn how to communicate with my wife, recognize and work on character defects, and forgive, accept, and love the different pieces of me. He also has a special talent for slipping little comments, suggestions, or advice towards the end of each one-on-one meeting; I’m calling them ‘Nuggets From Jake,’ and I look forward to them.”

"Having a porn addiction doesn't make you bad, immoral, or perverted. It just means you have some skills to discover. Practice them each day, and eventually porn addiction will be a distant memory."
"Before joining No More Desire, I tried to stop my porn addiction on my own, but I struggled to make real progress. I would stop for a few days but then get hooked again and relapse very quickly. Jake’s program was different. The design of the program makes it highly probable you will break the neurological addiction by doing the daily exercises. The gap between my relapses started widening, from days to weeks. Not only that, the grip of the addiction on me has gotten softer. I no longer feel weak. Jake was so helpful, especially during the hard times where I had to have hard conversations with my wife. I believed that my sexual impulses and their frequency were natural, and that surrendering to them was natural and was the only way to release them. Now, I know that good habits, good self understanding, and good thinking make me grounded and focused, and give me healthy, sexual power."
