Increasing numbers of therapists are coming into contact with the
problem of compulsive sexual behaviour disorders. However, it is
still a relatively new field and there is little in the current
literature available that enables the therapist to work with and
treat this problem. CBT for Compulsive Sexual Behaviour: A guide
for professionals addresses this by providing a guide to
cognitive-behavioural theory and practice which includes the
assessment, diagnosis and treatment of addictive sexually
compulsive disorders. Beginning with a description of addictive
sexuality and an overview of cognitive behavioural therapy in which
CBT is presented as the most useful response, Thaddeus Birchard
provides clear therapeutic information about the implementation of
CBT treatment intervention. The chapters included cover the
neuroscience that underpins the addictive process; a 'how to'
chapter on the use of groups; paraphilias; trauma and attachment;
comorbid disorders and cross-addictions and analysis on the
function of internet pornography, all written from a cognitive
behavioural stance. Using case vignettes throughout, Thaddeus
Birchard draws on his own experience as a psychosexual therapist,
along with the latest research in the field, to enable the
therapist to treat a range of compulsive sexual problems in a way
that can be applied in individual practice or in a group setting as
well as how to prevent relapse. This book will be essential reading
for psychosexual therapists, cognitive behaviour therapists and
other professional working with sexual compulsive disorders.

The concept of sexual addiction has gained increasing recognition
in the academic and healthcare communities since the 1990s. It has
also captured the attention of the media, where there has been much
debate over whether it can truly be described as an addiction. What
is certain is that many people struggle with out of control sexual
behaviour, which takes over their lives and has harmful
consequences for their relationships, careers and finances. The
Routledge International Handbook of Sexual Addiction brings
together a comprehensive range of perspectives on sexual addiction
from a worldwide selection of scholars and therapists. It sets out
to define sexual addiction and to study its causes from a range of
different psychological perspectives. A series of presentations of
sexual addiction are outlined, including internet sexual addiction
and the relationship between paraphilias and sex addiction. The
handbook considers both individual and group treatment strategies,
drawing on a wide range of approaches, including cognitive
behavioural therapy, mindfulness and 12-step programmes. The book
studies sex addiction in specific populations including women,
adolescents and men who have sex with men. Finally, it considers
some of the alternative discourses surrounding the concept of
sexual addiction. This is the first comprehensive reference book to
bring together global viewpoints on advances in research, theory
and practice in one volume. This handbook provides an essential
guide for academics and students of psychotherapy, counselling,
nursing, addiction, sexualities, social work and health and social
care, as well as professionals in practice and in training working
with sexual addiction and related issues.
