Description
This book presents a comprehensive overview of how sexuality and addiction are intertwined, and presents approaches for counsellors and educators to assist individuals who have been impacted by sexual experiences in finding solutions for recovery and improved sexual health.
This one-of-a-kind text incorporates a holistic sexual health model as a framework for discussion. Developing theoretical approaches for connecting the fields of sexology and addictionology are presented and explained from a global perspective.
Section One presents comprehensive information on major aspects of sexuality, explains the documented connections between sexuality, addiction/relapse/recovery, identifies issues for counsellors and those affected to consider in adopting healthier attitudes toward sexuality, as well as efficacious methods for achieving them.
Section Two consists of people in recovery's lived experiences and is adapted for case study work, breathing life into the struggles people grapple with as they recover.
Section Three includes sample lesson plans for each of the five circles of sexuality, tangible tools to use in sexual health groups, intake and the treatment process, tips for counsellors, and relevant resources.
Whether the reader is in recovery, a counsellor, or a student, the information in Sexuality and Addiction will provide perspectives on how to improve sexual self-esteem, assist in maintaining behaviour change, improve relationships with oneself and others - but most of all, to restore hope for sexual health in recovery.
