Sex Addiction as Affect Dysregulation provides what few--if any--books on the subject have done yet: it offers a comprehensive, practical discussion of sex addiction as a primary, chronic brain disorder. More than that, the book presents a holistic approach to treatment for which Alexandra Katehakis offers an unparalleled foundation of information. This foundation for understanding sex addiction becomes the groundwork for a holistic approach to treatment. The case studies in the book add to its richness and, overall, Katehakis illuminates what has been largely unexplored for much too long.--Drew Pinsky, MD, internist/addictionologist and host of Dr. Drew on HLN; Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Keck School of Medicine, USC (11/20/2016 12:00:00 AM)
