Sex addiction. A guide for clinicians

Sex addiction. The Clinician's Guide is the first and comprehensive book on the clinical management of sex addiction. The editors of the book present a long-awaited text on how to approach the treatment of highly demanding sex addicted patients. The book is a great introduction for specialists with little experience as well as a useful reference tool for experienced clinicians. The co-authors of the book are pioneers of one of the last boundaries between addiction medicine and sexual disorder therapy.

With the growing awareness of sexholism as a problem and the advent of cybersexual compulsions, clinicians with little clinical or academic background are confronted with sexual compulsions. This is the first book to bring out the essence of the experience of the pioneers of this emerging area. Focusing on individual patient groups, the book is also a useful tool for solving problems. Clear, concise and filled with useful interventions, it contains a key text that every clinician working in the area of sexholism therapy must familiarize himself with.
