Here we are…thinking about infidelity

Didn’t think it would take me this long to write my next blog post but things have been very busy. Anyway, I have been working with a few couples recently who are experiencing issues with infidelity and thought I might write some of my thoughts down here.

Infidelity causes huge stress and harm for a couple. I also believe it can be the betrayal that is actually the worst part - the part behind your back, what you didn’t know, the lying, sneaking around, going on with life even though only 1 person knows the truth - until it all comes out…

Witnessing and supporting couples through what is likely to be one of the most painful emotional experiences they will encounter together, is both difficult and inspiring. My personal view of infidelity as a therapist - couples can heal and trust again if BOTH parties are willing to sit with the pain, commit to and action changes, and lastly to be patient.
