Description: |
Current knowledge about effective internet addiction treatment is limited. This book explores how 20 international internet addiction therapy experts experience the presenting problem of internet addiction in psychotherapy. |
Synopsis: |
Internet addiction has gained increasing scientific recognition in the last decade, with some researchers claiming it is a '21st Century epidemic'. Literature addressing its treatment is scarce, and there is little consensus among experts as to the most effective intervention. This book aims to fill the gap by exploring how internet addiction therapy experts experience the presenting problem of internet addiction in psychotherapy. A total of 20 psychotherapists from six different countries were interviewed regarding their individual experience of treating patients suffering from internet addiction. They highlighted the existence and severity of internet addiction as psychopathology requiring professional therapy. These findings establish a relevant knowledge base of potential problems related to internet overuse. |
