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.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I approach the sensitive issue of infidelity with empathy and a non-judgmental stance, recognizing the profound impact it has on relationships. Utilizing a combination of therapeutic tools, including the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness, I work with individuals and couples to navigate the emotional turmoil and rebuild trust. Our focus extends beyond the immediate crisis, exploring underlying issues and enhancing communication and understanding between partners through couple counseling. This collaborative process is pivotal in re-establishing a foundation of trust and intimacy. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care for both individuals, advocating for practices that nurture physical, mental, and emotional well-being. By incorporating holistic strategies, I support clients in managing stress and emotional pain, fostering a healing environment for both personal growth and relationship recovery. Whether addressing the aftermath of infidelity or working to strengthen the bond between partners, I am dedicated to guiding clients through this challenging journey towards reconciliation and renewal, highlighting the power of mutual support and individual self-care in overcoming obstacles and building a stronger, healthier relationship.
