In 2001, Dr. Kevin Skinner, a marriage and family therapist, was asked by a religious leader to work with some men who had been struggling with addiction to pornography. Eventually, Dr. Skinner found himself working with pornography addicts often, so he decided to write a book on the subject called Treating Pornography Addiction: The Essential Tools for Recovery. The book itself is meant for both men who struggle with pornography, as well as therapists who wish to work with men who struggle with pornography. In Treating Pornography Addiction: The Essential Tools for Recovery, one will find: 45 exercises for the addicted, an assessment for how addicted one is to pornography, factors for those most likely to become addicted to pornography, the importance of journaling, reaction sequences, a discussion of behaviors that lead to relapse, and a discussion of behaviors that lead to progress. Though it is not exhaustive, Dr. Kevin Skinner's Treating Pornography Addiction: The Essential Tools for Recovery is one of the best starting places for Catholic men who wish to learn more about their problem and what to do about it.
