Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I work with couples recovering from infidelity when both partners want to work through the rupture in their relationship and remain together. This always involved each partner thinking about and listing their wants and needs. Because to move forward after infidelity both partner's wants and needs have probably changed. Once the partners know what they each want and need we work on if or how each partner can meet the other partner's needs and wants. This therapeutic work allows clients to see not just who their partner is now but who their partner wants to be in their relationship.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
There was a period of time in our country where partners were expected to stay with their spouse after an affair. It was considered deeply shameful to divorce. The tables seem to have turned, however, as we now live in a more autonomous and self-realizing culture; it’s often expected that the ‘victim’ of an affair will leave the unfaithful spouse in order to make a statement of self-respect. Now, if you stay with your partner after they’ve had an affair, you may feel ashamed and humiliated, as though you’re not strong enough to leave. You may even hear from well-meaning friends and family that “you deserve better.”
Although the therapists at PCT are by and large hopeless romantics, we are also realists. We are under no illusions that romantic partnerships are easy, but we also know affairs happen for a multitude of reasons. Many cases of infidelity can be mended, repaired, and used as a growth opportunity for the couple. We are here to walk this excruciating journey with you- we know where the guideposts are, we know what recovery looks like. Sometimes you will feel like you’re backsliding, but it’s only a product of healing. It’s a confusing and painful experience, but often, in the end, absolutely worth it. We are here to help.

Ayden Ferstenberg
Psychologist, PsyD
Infidelity can shatter your sense of trust and leave you questioning not only your relationship, but your understanding of your partner and your shared history. Whether you're the partner who was betrayed, the partner who was unfaithful, or both partners trying to understand what happened, you may feel caught between wanting answers, protecting yourself, and deciding what comes next. I help individuals and couples navigate the pain and complexity of betrayal while exploring the relationship dynamics surrounding the infidelity without minimizing the harm or reducing either partner to a single role. Therapy can help you examine the internal and external conditions that created the context for betrayal to emerge with honesty and curiosity, and make the necessary changes to rebuild a relationship and restore trust in yourself and others.

Pamela Brewer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, Ph.D, LCSW-C,DCSW
The only person responsible for the infidelity is the person who has engaged in moving outside of your core relationship - this can be a sexual relationship and/or emotional connection outside of your core relationship. With help, couples can heal from relationships - both parties must be willing to look at the origins of the behavior and what can be different - needs to be different in order to facilitate true healing.
