Book Recommendations

Reading can be a powerful part of both the healing and change process. Exploring the stories and perspectives of others allows you to think deeply about your own experiences and gain new insights that will help you in your journey to freedom.

Below you will find a collection of books that I have found especially helpful for people with addictive and problematic sexual behaviors, and those in their lives who have been negatively impacted.

The links below are for your convenience, but you can find many of these books in your local bookstore and from a variety of online sellers. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
