Upcoming Seminars Explanation

Sexual Addiction (Hypersexual Disorder) and the Brain: Integrating Affect Regulation and CBT in Treatment
[12 Credits]
Oct 18 - Nov 07, 2010

Sexual addiction or, as is being proposed to the DSM-V committee, Hypersexual Behavioral Disorder, is a problem that therapists are increasingly seeing in their practices and want to address. We know that traumatic childhood experiences of many sex addicts led to disturbed attachment and affect dysregulation— hallmarks of sex addiction and the reason that affective neuroscience is especially relevant to this population. In an effort to assist therapists in learning where to begin to treat these issues, this course will teach procedures for the most effective and efficient treatment of the problem including affect regulation. An integrated approach will be taken by focusing on cognitive/behavioral protocols coupled with the principles of affective neuroscience. Specifically, mother-infant attachment, early childhood trauma, and autonomic nervous system arousal will be highlighted as underlying causes of the problem. Register now. Save 15% early fee
