Infidelity can be the most challenging issue a couple faces but it does not have to mean the end of the relationship, only a clear sign that change needs to happen.
Life has never been particularly easy, but lately we are faced with additional stress. As a psychologist, I meet with men and women, couples and families who are coping with conflict in their marriages, conflicts with their children, financial pressures, and workplace stress. Things might seem so overwhelming that we despair of ever recapturing the happiness and optimism that we once might have had. I can show you ways to reduce your anxiety, and develop new coping strategies to improve interactions in your family, your relationships and your workplace. You can find confidence and recapture a sense of well being.

Let’s be honest, none of this is easy. You might feel caught in a whirlwind of anxiety, just getting through each day without truly enjoying it. When you’re facing the aftermath of a breakup or divorce, it’s even tougher. You’ve become a master at hiding your struggles, putting on a brave face while your heart feels shattered inside.

You’re starting to realize that instead of waiting for someone to save you, it’s time to save yourself. I’m here to help you through that process.

You’re carrying something heavy. Maybe it’s a marriage unraveling, a teenager you can’t reach, or a family that feels like it’s coming apart at the seams. Maybe it’s older than that — trauma that keeps showing up no matter how hard you try to leave it behind. Or maybe you’ve had a powerful psychedelic or ketamine experience, and you’re trying to integrate what it opened in you. Whatever brought you here, you’re done white-knuckling it alone. You want real change. You want to feel like yourself again. And you want someone who actually gets it — not just professionally, but personally.

Infidelity Therapists
How does therapy for infidelity work?
A skilled infidelity therapist will provide a safe space for clients to communicate their feelings and concerns. The goal is to be completely honest about what led to the cheating and how it has affected the entire family to prevent it from recurring in the future. The therapist will help the clients work on rebuilding mutual trust and respect and developing better communication and conflict-resolution skills. If the goal is to remain a couple, clients will learn the “danger signs” for their specific relationship, and they will make a renewed commitment to be faithful.
How long does therapy for infidelity take?
Recovery from infidelity can take time, and it can vary from person to person. Generally, a therapist will want to see the clients at least once a week for around six months. Then the sessions can be arranged as needed, depending on the clients’ individual needs. While therapy may end or shift to an as-needed basis, it can take up to two years or more for some clients to fully recover from infidelity.
How does therapy help the partner who was cheated on?
When a client discovers their partner’s infidelity, their trust in the relationship and in the life they had together may be shattered. They often experience mental health symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, grief, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). They don’t always want to stay in the relationship; they may feel ambivalent or may even want to leave. Therapy gives these clients a safe and healthy way to communicate all of their complicated emotions and concerns.
How does therapy help the partner who committed infidelity?
Infidelity often occurs when one or both partners’ emotional needs are not being met in the relationship. Therapy can help this client understand why they cheated and figure out how to address those unmet needs without resorting to infidelity in the future. This can lessen (but not entirely eliminate) the risk of repeated infidelity. Clients who cheat may also feel intense guilt about deceiving their partners, a sentiment that they can work through in therapy.
