About

Standing Strong Project

Standing Strong Project was founded on a deep desire to help Christians break free from sexual addiction, heal from the trauma of betrayal, and rebuild marriages on a foundation of truth and emotional safety.

Whether you’re the one caught in a destructive cycle, the one devastated by a partner’s betrayal, or the couple longing to rebuild from the ruins, there is hope. Even if you don’t feel much of it right now.

it's not just about quitting porn

It’s about restoring integrity, rebuilding trust, and rediscovering who God made you to be.

This is not a quick fix. It’s a process. But it’s one that can lead to lasting freedom and restored connection.

What SSP is Here For

I created Standing Strong Project to be a place where:

Christian men and women struggling with pornography or sexual addiction can find faith-based, psychologically sound tools for breaking the cycle and starting over with clarity and courage.

Spouses who have experienced betrayal can find safety, their voice, and a path toward healing.

Couples who want to rebuild trust and intimacy can find the tools and support to begin again, stronger than before.

Some will come here in crisis. Others in quiet hurt. All are welcome. Whatever brought you here, know this: change is possible. The deep desire of Standing Strong Project is to bring you the tools that will make it last.

The Vision

Standing Strong Project was born from a vision to see lives restored—one heart and one story at a time.

I create resources that don’t just deliver information but invite transformation. Resources that stir reflection. Build emotional resilience. Deepen spiritual connection. Resources that keep you moving forward even when it’s hard.

I want to see:

FREEDOM FROM SEXUAL ADDICTION

Christian men and women living in sexual integrity, thriving both spiritually and emotionally

HEALING FROM BETRAYAL TRAUMA

Betrayed partners regaining clarity, safety, strength, and finding their voice

RESTORED MARRIAGES

Christian marriages strengthened on a foundation of truth, trust, empathy, and deeper connection

What makes SSP different ?

I believe in combining:

Biblical faith with therapeutic insight and neuroscience

Grace and compassion with truth-telling and responsibility

Trauma-informed care with modern addiction science

The goal isn’t to offer a quick fix, but a path for real people, in real struggles, looking for real hope.

Meet the Founder

My name is Anita, and I’m the founder of Standing Strong Project.

I’m a certified Pastoral Sex Addiction & Multiple Addiction Professional (PSAP, PMAP) and theologian, but more than that—I’m someone who has walked with Christian men, women, and couples through some of the hardest, most painful seasons of their lives.

I created this project because I saw a deep need for tools that are biblically compatible, emotionally honest, trauma-informed, and that integrate spiritual practices alongside the best of recovery science.

I believe that no one is too broken to be rebuilt. I believe that no one is out of reach for God’s mercy. I believe that a life of strength and integrity is possible for anyone who is willing to do the recovery work.

My heart is to create resources that speak to the reality of addiction, the devastation of betrayal, and the beauty of personal and relational restoration.

If that’s the journey you’re on—this space was made for you.
