Infidelity counseling is couples therapy after cheating - whether that is emotional affair, porn addiction or a physical affair. Healing a marriage after an affair involves couples therapy where they betrayal is processed, trust is rebuilt and a new marriage can be formed. Even though painful, many couples do recover and build a strong relationship moving forward.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
It could have been months or years since you discovered your partner's affair. You just can't seem to get rid of the lingering emotions. You still feel anxiety, confusion, fear, and stress, no matter how hard you try. Even seemingly insignificant situations appear to trigger you on a regular basis. You might be thinking that you'll be feeling this way for the rest of your life. Recognize that there is hope and that you can recover. When you know what's causing your reaction, it's far easier to deliberately choose to "respond" rather than "react," reclaiming control. This is critical for regaining emotional stability and self-awareness.

Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
When one partner cheats, the other can be left in a world of confusion, terror, trauma, and anxiety. There are few things more difficult to overcome than infidelity. Sometimes it is the straw that breaks the camel's back. Other times it is the very thing that starts a process of healing and reunification. I work with couples every day who are trying to find their way back from betrayal. It is possible! It takes hard work though and dedication to the relationship. The person who cheated needs to do some very deep exploration of themselves to figure out why they strayed. They need to be to explain their behavior in a way that makes sense to their partner such that they can begin to forgive and trust again. This can take a long time. Couples therapy can really help to make this go much smoother and more quickly. Sometimes, out of the worst crisis, a new relationship emerges, one that is happier, more stable, more open, and more loving.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, CST
Dealing with infidelity is one of the most painful and confusing issues many couple have to deal with. I work with couples dealing with infidelity to do the challenging work of healing, addressing underlying issues and rebuilding trust. Often infidelity brings an end to the relationship but it can also bring to light underlying issues in the relationship that, when addressed, allow for a deeper more enduring connection.

Infidelity can cause immense pain to the person betrayed. It also can cause immense pain to the person who betrayed. Many times healing can create the strongest of relationships. Healing can also lead to separation with a growth in self understanding. Therapy can help determine your choice of path through support, grief work and insight.
