Therapy for Infidelity / Betrayal
Betrayal therapy isn’t about minimizing the pain or rushing forgiveness. It’s about helping you process what happened, understand what’s underneath it, and decide at your own pace what healing looks like for you.
How Betrayal Often Shows Up
After infidelity, emotional and relational distress may show up as:
Constant overthinking or intrusive thoughts
Hypervigilance or lack of emotional safety
Intense anger, sadness, or numbness
Loss of trust in your partner—or yourself
Difficulty communicating without conflict
Shame, guilt, or fear of abandonment
These reactions are not weaknesses—they are trauma responses to broken trust.
Imagine Life With Clarity, Stability, and Choice
Imagine no longer feeling consumed by unanswered questions.
Imagine having space to breathe, think, and feel without constant emotional chaos.
Imagine gaining clarity whether that means rebuilding trust or finding peace moving forward.
Healing doesn’t mean forgetting what happened. It means regaining your sense of self, safety, and agency.
