Infidelity is brutal and yet it is also data. This sounds cold but my intention in saying this is for everyone involved to take stock, in the pain, to figure out what they really want, not only in relationship, but in life. Heartbreak can take down walls, deepen our journeys, and cause us to come out the other side clearer, and in touch with our truer selves. Whether staying or going, I offer acceptance, paths to forgiveness, and a perspective that points you toward a bigger horizon after real repair, accountability, and honesty takes place.

Jonah Fialkow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
When working with clients dealing with infidelity, my approach is centered around fostering a safe and supportive environment where all parties involved can express themselves openly and honestly. I understand that infidelity is a complex issue that can elicit a wide range of emotions such as anger, betrayal, guilt, and sadness.
First and foremost, I aim to validate the feelings of all individuals affected by the infidelity, whether they are the betrayed partner or the one who engaged in the infidelity. Each person's experience is unique, and it's crucial to honor their emotions without judgment.
Next, I facilitate open and respectful communication between the individuals involved. This involves helping them understand the underlying factors that may have contributed to the infidelity, such as relationship dissatisfaction, communication issues, or personal vulnerabilities. By exploring these factors in a safe space, clients can gain insight into their own behaviors and the dynamics of their relationship.
I also work with clients to rebuild trust and repair the relationship if that is their goal. This often involves setting clear boundaries, improving communication skills, and addressing underlying issues that may have contributed to the infidelity. Trust-building exercises and techniques for rebuilding intimacy may also be incorporated into therapy sessions.
However, I recognize that not all relationships can or should be salvaged after infidelity. In cases where the clients decide to end the relationship, I support them through the process of healing and moving forward separately. This may involve helping them cope with the grief and loss associated with the end of the relationship, as well as assisting them in developing healthy coping mechanisms and setting goals for the future.
Ultimately, my approach to infidelity is focused on facilitating healing, growth, and understanding for all parties involved, while empowering clients to make decisions that align with their values and well-being.

Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Infidelity can leave individuals and couples feeling shocked, confused, or unsure how to rebuild trust—whether you're coping with the discovery, the disclosure, or the aftermath. I offer a nonjudgmental space to slow down, understand what led to the rupture, and begin to process the emotions beneath the surface. With a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll work toward clarity, honest communication, and a healthier path forward—whether that means repair, closure, or a new way of relating.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
The discovery of infidelity is a profound trauma that can shatter your sense of safety and reality. Drawing on over 15 years of experience working with both those who have been betrayed and those who have caused the hurt, I provide a steady, non-judgmental space to navigate the wreckage.
My approach uses a Parts Work lens to understand the underlying 'why' behind the betrayal or to help heal the intense hyper-vigilance and pain that follows it. We don't just look at the event; we explore the survival strategies and early patterns that impact how you relate to others. Whether you are looking to repair the relationship or move forward individually, I help you find a path toward clarity, stability, and genuine emotional healing.

Infidelity
The initial shock of infidelity is shattering to the hurt partner. It feels like a profound loss. It turns your sense of reality upside down. Not only do you feel betrayed, but you begin to question whether you can trust your own perceptions. The world no longer seems to make sense. It feels enormously difficult to recover from. You may feel like you are going crazy but you're not. Whatever you are feeling is a normal response to a traumatizing situation. For the unfaithful partner, you will likely be experiencing a torrent of conflicting feelings ranging from relief that the secret is out to feelings of impatience "I've told you everything and nothing I do or say makes any difference to you", to anxiety and guilt and feeling like no-one is there for you.
Partners are equally responsible for the relationship dynamic the brought them to this point. However each person is accountable for the decision they made, ie., to stray outside of the relationship or to shut down and withdraw.
One of the key questions couples will be faced with once the secret is out is "should I stay or should I go". Counselling can help you sort through the complexities of this question and decide if this person is right for you.
I invite you to book a free 15 minute consultation with me.

Burnaby is one of Metro Vancouver's most populous municipalities — home to Simon Fraser University and BCIT, and housing the headquarters of Electronic Arts Canada alongside major Telus offices and other technology employers — creating a therapy demand shaped by tech-sector burnout, academic stress, and a highly multicultural population that includes large Chinese, South Korean, Iranian, and South Asian communities. SFU and BCIT generate significant student mental health demand and clinical training pipelines that feed into the local therapy community. Burnaby Hospital and nearby Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community that serves residents increasingly priced out of Vancouver proper. Many Burnaby residents access the broader Metro Vancouver therapy ecosystem, and the relative proximity to Vancouver means specialist care is generally accessible.
