Even though sex and love are some of the most universal, sought-after experiences we have, many of us lack the tools and understanding to approach them in a healthy way. Without knowing it, many people struggling with sex and love actually fall somewhere on the spectrum of sex and love addiction (SLA). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSex and love addiction is still wildly misunderstood. It's shrouded in secrecy and shame, and many counselors lack the training to address it--leaving people who need help without resources. Yet SLA isn't a binary of you are or you aren't, rather, it's a spectrum. Kerry Cohen knows this all too well as both a therapist and someone who identifies on the SLA spectrum. Based on research and her own clinical experience, \u003ci\u003eCrazy for You\u003c\/i\u003e dives into SLA and provides an inclusive framework for understanding relationships, along with practical exercises and advice for self-assessment, discovery, and healing: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart one explains the sex and love addiction spectrum, helping you determine where you fall on it and how you got there\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart two introduces strategies for breaking the spell of sex and love addiction, like behavior modifications and self-awareness techniques\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart three teaches you how to navigate healthy, safe, and fulfilling relationships\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKerry Cohen\u003c\/b\u003e is a doctor of clinical psychology and works as a licensed therapist in Portland, Oregon.
