As therapists Aradi and Keller explain in this volume, sex-addicted people are neither mentally ill nor are they deviants who hide in alleyways, adult bookstores, or massage parlors. They include people from all walks of life. Aradi and Keller shed light on the minds and motivations of sex addicts, and explain why, like any other addict, they feel they cannot stop even though they know their behavior destroys relationships, marriages, families, careers, and finances. The authors provide a guide to recognizing the many faces, forms, and phases of sex addiction, and suggest what addicts can do to recover and what spouses, partners, and family members can do to aid recovery and heal their own hurt and anger.
