Change is hard. Relationships are hard. If you're experiencing challenges in work, family, or any area where other people are involved-there is help! And if there's anything the last few years have shown us, it's the need for help in relationships! It can really pay to develop a great life/work strategy and create a powerful set of life “tools” for your “toolbelt”. Therapy can do this and more. We will work collaboratively as a team, setting and achieving goals through structured discussion.

As an Associate Partner Trauma Therapist (IITAP) I have extensive experience working with betrayed partners of infidelity and sex addiction.
Life's too short to let anyone or anything steal your sparkle. I am here to help you find your voice, take your power back, rebuild trust in yourself, and learn to laugh again (even if it's at the absurdity of it all). I work best with clients wanting to be more self led, release heavy burdens, work on family-of-origin issues, or heal from trauma and PTSD.

I have experience working with couples that are going through or have gone through the adoption process and couples that have dealt with or are dealing with infidelity.
Making the step to begin the counseling process can be scary and overwhelming; but it can be the first step toward healing and change. I absolutely love working with individuals and couples. Walking along side clients as they journey their way through hurt, anger, grief, frustration, and other emotions, is my pleasure. Some of my previous clients came to me when things seemed to be very grim and hopeless. It has been my pleasure to watch them put in the hard work and commitment to the therapeutic process and come out as stronger individuals and couples.

Do you struggle with sex getting more daily attention than your closest relationships? Maybe a previous infidelity or betrayal continues to plague the relationship? Many of my clients struggle to make sense of emotions, but long to feel safe and connected to friends and family. Despite our best protective strategies, emotional experiences will not be ignored. Over a lifespan, adaptive protective strategies of the past become our prisons. Mal-adaptive in the present, old and helpful strategies of the past form the barriers to trusting safe and connected relationships we all desperately desire.

Trust and respect: Two requirements for love to grow. If your relationship is in trouble, these parts are probably missing. I specialize in helping couples rebuild when trust and respect are lost. Nothing damages a relationship more than betrayal. There is a process to not just recovering from, but redeeming what has happened. In many ways the betrayal is like a big boulder in the way of your relationship. Couples who don't address the boulder end up dragging it with them. The goal of counseling is to push the boulder out of the way and leave it behind.

As a temperament counselor, I give clients a questionnaire to complete in order to help them identify their soul needs. Once a client understands their temperament, we can develop a strategy to live a life that is more stable and fruitful. Teens who struggle to understand their identity, self worth and passions are also favorite clients. Premarital counseling is so vital to set a solid foundation before entering into the marriage union. Marriage counseling is important and necessary for strong families and communities which I spend a fair amount of time navigating these unions.

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.
