We hope you'll join us on Thursday, January 28, 2021 for the next ISSM webinar, which will focus on sexual addiction, pornography, and hypersexuality. 

ISSM President Annamaria Giraldi will open the session at 2:00 pm UTC. Jordan Rullo of the United States and Mohammad Shamsul Ahsan of Bangladesh will moderate. 

Three topics are planned. First, James Pfaus wil discuss the neurobiology of hypersexuality. Next, Peer Briken will present an integrated model to assess and treat compulsive sexual behavior disorder. Finally, Michal Lew-Starowicz will cover the treatment of compulsive sexual behavior.

A Q & A session will follow these presentations.

A  newly-developed approach to internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) received favorable ratings from men with hypersexual disorder with and without paraphilia(s). 

A recent pilot study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine involved 36 men in Sweden. All of the men were considered to have hypersexual disorder, and 25 had at least one paraphilia. 

After the 10-module program, the men had improvements in hypersexual symptoms, paraphilic symptoms, sexual compulsivity and psychiatric well-being.
