Groups

Betrayed and Hurt

Hosted by

Laurie J Watson

One of our clinicians has a group to help spouses of unfaithful (affairs, internet, addiction) partners cope with the feelings of betrayal, disgust, anger and fear. Learn how to not be codependent and how to represent yourself well. Relieve the feeling that you are the only one going through this by talking with others in a confidential group.
