The It’s Not About the Sex Workbook
Moving from Isolation to Intimacy After Sexual Compulsivity
About this book
This intimate guide offers readers step-by-step suggestions to build traction and create momentum in any stage of healing through illuminating case studies, memoir snapshots, as well as applicable action steps.
The book presents a forward-thinking wellness model that takes the whole person into consideration rather than pathologizing or dwelling on compulsive behavior of the past. Each chapter includes a composite case study and a memoir snapshot to set the tone and illustrate themes to be explored. The studies and snapshots demonstrate the residual challenges and limitless opportunities facing those in long-term recovery from sexual compulsivity. Utilizing the tools of positive psychology, attachment theory, and nervous system regulation, readers are challenged to leverage their resilience and resourcefulness. Critical issues such as spirituality and mindfulness provide a purposeful soul-searching toward wellness and well-being.
For use in conjunction with therapy, twelve-step groups or as a self-help workbook, this book focuses on the present and the future with an emphasis on the establishment of deeper connection and cultivating greater life fulfilment beyond compulsive sexual behavior.
