Describe the impact of four barriers to treatment and how each negatively influences those getting help.

What will be an ideal response?


Ans: Barriers to treatment may include cost, stigma, lack of treatment options, and lack of training about sexual addiction at the masters’ level of social work. Those seeking help are negatively impacted when they cannot afford the treatment needed after making the conscious decision to do so. This is coupled with the stigma of the behavior and the inability to have their disorder identified by a professional. Furthermore, lack of treatment options designed to allow for easy access to recovery make integrating treatment into day-to-day life a challenge.
