ABSTRACT
Integrating psychotherapy and 12-step program membership can be both challenging and rewarding for the therapist and the client. Twelve-step programs can provide the daily support clients may need to transfer their primary coping strategy from the compulsive sexual behavior to a healthier system that will assist them to gradually develop alternative coping skills. When a client is acting out on a daily basis, he or she needs more support than weekly psychotherapy cal) provide.
