Abstract: Previously (Butler & Seedall, 2006), we discussed the potential benefits of integrating the pair-bond attachment relationship (Hazan & Ziefman, 1999) into treatment for sexual addiction. We outlined a five-stage (Butler & Gardner, 2003), three-component (Davis & Butler, 2004) enactment model designed to circumvent attendant emotional reactivity and volatility while directly accessing the pair-bond attachment relationship in sponsoring both recovery and relational healing. This article complements the foregoing conceptual framework by delineating a variety of attachment-anchored, enactment-based interventions that may be adapted to the varying recovery and relationship needs of couples. Each intervention will be set forth conceptually and operationally, followed by an explanation of the value added when facilitated within an enactment context. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
