A rupture in a romantic relationship such as infidelity can cause significant strain on a relationship and leave partners feeling isolated, betrayed, hurt, and confused. Addressing infidelity in therapy can provide couples with the opportunity to repair the relationship or decide to end the relationship. As a therapist I seek to provide couples with a safe space to explore their emotions and feelings concerning the infidelity, find ways to be present and open to your partner’s experiences and perspectives and help couples better understand their needs and goals for the relationship. Schedule a free consultation with me to see if we are a good fit.

Infidelity indicates a complex interplay of emotional wounds and relational dynamics. Since adultery is woven into the fabric of attachment ties, it can evoke strong emotions of betrayal, abandonment, and insecurity that relive the wounds from previous relationship breakups. Like a shattered mirror, the discovery of betrayal fractures the foundation of trust, plunging individuals into a whirlwind of emotional turmoil. Therapy becomes a refuge amidst the storm, offering a space to navigate the labyrinth of emotions and process the echoes of past traumas. By fostering open communication, rebuilding trust, and addressing underlying attachment wounds, individuals and couples can embark on a journey of healing and reconciliation, forging a path towards greater understanding, resilience, and intimacy.

The profound pain and the rupture that infidelity creates is often insurmountable for a couple. But I believe it does not have to be the end of the relationship. There is hope where there is honest communication, repentance and forgiveness as well as new patterns that build bridges versus continuing the destruction of the bridges. I have seen couples completely change and heal upon doing the work to repair the broken trust and bridge.
