ABSTRACT

Cecilia and June spend the bulk of their session discussing Cecilia's concerns about June slipping in her recovery from obsessive use of pornography. June is working in individual therapy and is in a therapy group for sexual addiction. She had been caught by Cecilia a month ago for the second time with all kinds of pornography on her computer. In addition, she had been online in chat rooms sharing exciting porn sites. This chapter provides some example of Pulling It Together in a particular type of session. Some types of sessions described in the Full Steam Ahead period may require particular steps during this Pulling It Together period. The chapter also presents an example of one particular type of session to show the issues and steps that may need to be considered during the Pulling It Together period. In some couples sessions the therapist may be more focused on one of the partners.
