Dr. Patrick Carnes who is a renowned therapist and pioneer in the field of sexual addiction recovery and founder of the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP) has developed two specific assessments to help identify the presence of sexual addiction. These assessments are only accessible to Certified Sex Addiction Therapists (CSAT) which is the highest certification available in the world for the treatment of sex addiction.
Please note that sexual addiction does not appear in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-IV (DSM-IV) which means that it technically does not yet qualify as an actual mental disorder.
