Straight talk, up-to-date information and resources for individuals and couples about sexual addiction, cybersex addiction, sexual anorexia, sexual desire and sexual dysfunction.
“Addicted to Sex” is a case study I had published last month in the Psychotherapy Networker Magazine. Although this magazine directs its writings to professionals, lay persons can benefit by the rich and varied information in it.
“Addicted to sex” incorporates the traditional cognitive/behavioral model of sex addiction treatment with attachment theory, privileging the therapeutic relationship and incorporating the use of the body.
I just got home from Philadelphia where I presented two courses for the US Journal Conference on Behavioral Health & Addictive Disorders, The first talk was on my upcoming book, “Erotic Intelligence: Igniting Hot, Healthy Sex After Recovery From Sex Addiction,” and the other entitled “Early Childhood Attachment Patterns Effects on the Neuropsychobiology of Sex Addicts” mirrors a recent article I had published in the Journal of Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity.
While there, I had the pleasure of meeting Jane Velez-Mitchell who talked about her new book, “iwant? My Journey from Addiction and Overconsumption to a Simpler, Honest Life.”
If you haven’t read this book, I highly recommend you do!!
