Title

Moments Of Relational Depth In Sex Addiction Treatment

Abstract

Sex addiction is a prevalent experience affecting up to 6% of the adult population. Although many interventions exist for addressing sex addiction, clinicians may benefit from considering the nature of the therapeutic alliance when working with sexually addicted clients. Specifically, the construct of relational depth may help clinicians more holistically conceptualize sex addiction treatment and address client shame and attachment insecurities. In this article, we provide a thorough examination of relational depth, offer ways in which it may augment sex addiction treatment, and provide a case example to demonstrate its implementation.
