How does infidelity recovery therapy work?
Sometimes having someone outside of your relationship, who can hold compassion for both of you and create a structure for walking through this process, can make a big difference!
Your therapist will get to know you and your partner, your relationship story, the story of the infidelity, your past experiences may have impacted this experience, and your wants & hopes for your relationship moving forward. They will start with the person who has been betrayed being seen, understood, and supported by their partner. This is the time to stop the bleeding. Over time, the person who engaged in the infidelity will be able to share their feelings, what contributed to this path, and their intentions moving forward. It’s important both of you feel understood in your experience by the other to truly heal.
Your therapist will help you engage in more connecting communication during your sessions, create space to share your deepest feelings with each other, and give you tools for continuing the work outside of our sessions.
