June 15, 2025 – St. George, Utah – Matt Bulkley, LCSW, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Therapy Associates is proud to announce the release of the 2025 edition of the Breaking Free workbook, a proven resource for teens battling pornography addiction, alongside its companion parent workbook, Supporting Your Teen’s Recovery from Pornography Addiction. First launched in 2010, Breaking Free has guided thousands of teens over the past 15 years. The updated editions integrate cutting-edge research and clinical practices to address the challenges of today’s digital landscape, offering practical tools and hope for families.
Today’s teens face unprecedented exposure to explicit content through smartphones, social media, and apps. Pornography addiction, often fueled by curiosity, stress, or emotional needs, can impact mental health, relationships, and academic success. The Breaking Free teen workbook serves as a lifeline for those caught in this cycle, combining cognitive-behavioral techniques, spiritual guidance, and the Twelve Steps framework. Split into two parts with 10 core concepts, it includes assignments, a relapse tracker, and recovery tips to empower teens to break free and build resilience.
The parent workbook equips caregivers with strategies to support their teen’s recovery with empathy and intention. It offers insights into addiction’s complexities, reflective exercises, and discussion prompts to foster open dialogue. Both workbooks encourage a team approach, integrating support from therapists, clergy, and recovery groups. The supplemental 101 Tips for Quitting Porn provides quick, actionable strategies for teens and parents.
“Pornography addiction doesn’t discriminate—it can affect any teen, regardless of their achievements or dreams,” said Matt Bulkley. “The updated Breaking Free workbooks provide a structured, evidence-based path to recovery, empowering teens and parents to navigate this challenge together.”
Key features of the program include:
Evidence-based cognitive-behavioral strategies to rewire harmful habits
Spiritual guidance emphasizing faith and accountability
Practical tools like relapse trackers and discussion prompts
Recommendations for professional support, such as therapy and recovery groups
