Dr. Christina Gietzen works with individuals impacted by infidelity in their lives without shaming or judgement. She helps clients discover and recover from patterns that result in chronic dysfunctional relationships.
Dealing with infidelity is one of the most painful and confusing issues many couple have to deal with. I work with couples dealing with infidelity to do the challenging work of healing, addressing underlying issues and rebuilding trust. Often infidelity brings an end to the relationship but it can also bring to light underlying issues in the relationship that, when addressed, allow for a deeper more enduring connection.

Many individuals and couples need the support of a trained professional when coping with the trauma and betrayal of infidelity. I provide Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and Gottman Method Couples Therapy to facilitate this type of recovery.
Infidelity can cause immense pain to the person betrayed. It also can cause immense pain to the person who betrayed. Many times healing can create the strongest of relationships. Healing can also lead to separation with a growth in self understanding. Therapy can help determine your choice of path through support, grief work and insight.
Many couples experience infidelity in their marriage. While this is a trauma, with guidance it is very possible to recover from it and heal the marriage. I offer tools to help couples practice what needs to change. I teach specific communication skills that are easy to learn. I call the process 'creating your marriage 2.0' so my couples can go on to have a happy forever marriage.
Infidelity can be a extremely difficult often devastating experience in a marriage and for the family. Counseling can often clarify some of the underlying conflict, distrust, and rage that results in both partners.
