Recovery from an affair can seem impossible at times and right now you likely feel full of pain and anguish and are wondering how trust be rebuilt after a betrayal? It is a horrible experience to be betrayed and to have betrayed but healing can happen and marriages can thrive after an affair.

Your whole marriage likely seems shattered and I can imagine that you are questioning everything. I dive deep into all aspects of the marriage when I’m working with a couple who is trying to rebuild after an affair - whether sexual or emotional.

I offer couples a straight forward process to working through betrayals while maintaining alliance with both partners to allow for healing. Therapy for affairs includes three parts - atonement, attunement, and attachment. Based on Gottman’s research, working through all three phases is essential to treating affairs well and provides ample space for cleaning out the deep wound and rebuilding the marital relationship as a a whole.

If both people are willing to put in more effort than they ever have into each other, there is hope in the marriage being saved and restored.

I offer two types of services for affair recovery:

Intensive Sessions

During intensive sessions we will do a thorough assessment, work on reconciliation and repair of the betrayal and any other events that have caused wounds, make a plan for rebuilding trust and deepening friendship and intimacy while working on communication and conflict resolution tools. At the end, you’ll receive a roadmap for how to sustain a healthy marriage.

Intensive or Marathon Couples Therapy is a dynamic alternative to traditional weekly sessions. It’s a condensed and focused approach to marriage counseling that will provide you with the time you need to address specific issues and get your relationship back on track. In this powerful therapy format, you’ll meet for 6 hour sessions over 3 days, depending on your needs. We will schedule 8 hour days to allow for a lunch break and two smaller breaks.

Weekly Sessions

During weekly sessions, we will go through the same process as above, except we will take more time in the work between sessions. Weekly sessions allow you and your spouse to practice rebuilding trust and using your tools while I walk alongside of you in your journey towards restoration.

90 minute sessions are highly recommended.
