Nothing wrong with quick fixes. I could use a few that aren't chocolate, sleeping....
Just wanted to mention that I spent six months on hypnosis, trying to get to the core of my feelings. I experienced a calmness and comfortableness but I don't think I ever really "went under." I will admit that I backed off when things started to get uncomfortable, but maybe that was because I didn't/couldn't/shouldn't go where he might have been taking me. Too close for comfort for me.
In any case, if you consider hypnosis, make sure you feel you have the strength to do it. Uncovering things before we're ready for them can be too much to handle sometimes. At least that's my 2 cents and what I learned from my T.
good luck, and I think you're right. It doesn't matter what the addiction is, but I am surprised your T picked up on sex addiction. I wouldn't have picked that for you--I would have thought spending, etc. would be more in line what you've let us know about you.
