Cybersexual addiction has become a profound problem in today's culture. Conservative estimates suggest that 6-8% of all online users are experiencing marked difficulties and negative consequences related to their use of internet sexual content and, at a minimum, 1% have an addiction or severe compulsivity issues. These figures are greater than those suffering from gambling addiction and eating disorders combined. Cybersexual addiction is an emerging field and mental health providers report being unprepared to address the many individuals they are encountering in their practices with these issues. This seminar will help you understand what cybersexual addiction is, how it develops and how to diagnose it. This seminar will provide an overview of the neuroscience behind cybersexual addiction and the impact of the addiction on the individual.Finally, a task oriented approach to treatment will be presented.
