Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Many people suffer in secret from unwanted sexual obsessions. These people are not perverts or pedophiles, but normal individuals with a brain-based condition called obsessive-compulsive disorder or OCD. Most of us have heard of OCD, but few realize that OCD can cause people to have terrifying sexual thoughts that just won't go away. Many therapists are baffled by these symptoms and may spin their wheels trying to get to the root of problem. The good news is that there are effective, short-term treatments to help sufferers overcome these demons and start feeling better again.
MoreLong description:
Sexual obsessions are a common symptom of OCD, but addressing them in treatment is uniquely challenging due to feelings of shame, prior misdiagnosis, and the covert nature of ritualizing behaviors. These complicating factors make it difficult for clients to disclose their symptoms and for clinicians to know how to approach treatment.
Sexual Obsessions in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder provides clinicians with the information and guidance needed to help clients experiencing unwanted and intrusive thoughts of a sexual nature. Opening with background information on sexual obsessions and OCD, including assessment and differential diagnosis, Williams and Wetterneck then offer a complete, step-by-step manual describing treatment using a combination of empirically-supported CBT strategies, such as exposure and response prevention, cognitive therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy, as well as useful mindfulness techniques. Accompanying these practical, step-by-step instructions are educational handouts and diagrams for clients designed to promote learning. The book concludes with a discussion of relationship issues that commonly result from sexually-themed OCD, and how therapists can tackle these problems. Sexual Obsessions in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is an essential resource for clinicians who treat OCD, as well as students and trainees from across the mental health professions.
Williams and Wetterneck, both highly respected clinical psychologists, have produced what is arguably the magisterial volume on approaching sexual obsessions in obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)...One of the strengths of the volume is precisely its open approach to a multitude of practices without sacrificing the depth required to guide practitioners who must work with a challenging population of clients. There is currently no better book on the sexual obsessions specific to OCD, and this definitive volume serves as an indispensable resource for students and practitioners of psychology, psychiatry, and social work, as well as those employed in allied mental health fields.
