Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity

Description:

---

Now being understood and treated as a significant and widespread disorder, sexual addiction and compulsivity is an enormously complex problem that requires a multidisciplinary approach from psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, family therapists, pastoral counselors, and law enforcement personnel. The first and only journal devoted to topics pertaining to this growing illness, Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity: The Journal of Treatment and Prevention is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for research and clinical practice. As the source for information in this expanding new field, this journal will give practicing clinicians useful and innovative strategies for intervention and treatment from the necessary multidisciplinary perspective. Conceptual issues regarding addiction, compulsivity, and sexual medicine will be explored as new research emerges, as well as the underlining challenges in public policy and prevention, and criteria for diagnosis and reimbursement.
