Certified Sex Addiction Therapists

Spokane Christian Counseling

What is a CSAT Counselor?

Certified Sex Addiction Therapists (CSAT) are extensively trained in highly tested and proven methods for treating sexual addictions. CSATs hold a Masters-level education or higher in psychology or a related field. They are fully licensed and have at least five years of experience working in mental health. CSAT training is a postgraduate specialty led by the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP) that requires extensive training, coursework, and clinical experience.

CSAT Counselors are trained to:

  • Assess the severity of sexual dependence.
  • Determine the cause of the addiction such as sexual and trauma history, family of origin issues, and other addiction-related interactions.
  • Lead a specific program of treatment that includes guided tasks conducted in either individual sessions, group sessions, or both.

What is a CSAT Candidate?

CSAT Candidates are Masters-level therapists who are experienced in treating sexual addictions and are in the process of being fully CSAT credentialed.

Why CSAT Training is Important

The CSAT training program was founded by Dr. Patrick Carnes, a pioneer in compulsive addiction treatments, and is becoming an educational standard for sex addiction professionals. Conducted by the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP), this training offers industry leading information, insight, and skills for professionals who want to successfully treat addictive and compulsive behaviors. CSAT training builds a strong understanding of the sexual addiction experience and struggles, as well as in-depth insight into the recovery process.
