Douglairian psychology apc
Marriage and Family Therapist, Lmft
I specialize in working with relationships affected by infidelity. My practice offers support for couples together, as well as individual sessions for either the unfaithful or the betrayed partner, as each path requires specific focus and healing.
For the betrayed partner, we prioritize self-care and the establishment of healthy boundaries. For the unfaithful partner, we focus on accountability and understanding the underlying factors that led to the infidelity. For couples, the primary goal is the process of rebuilding trust.

Kari Carter
Life Coach, APSATS certified, ACC, CPC, ADOH
Infidelity is more than a breach of trust - it is often experienced as trauma. Discovery can trigger shock, hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, and a deep loss of safety. I specialize in working with individuals impacted by affairs, and relational deception using a partner-sensitive, trauma-informed approach. Rather than minimizing the harm or rushing toward forgiveness, my work prioritizes stabilization, validation, and clarity.
Whether you are seeking answers, rebuilding trust, or discerning the future of your relationship, I provide structured support to help you regulate your nervous system, establish boundaries, and reclaim your voice. Healing from infidelity requires more than communication tools - it requires safety, truth, and steady guidance.

Dr. Shawn V Giammattei
Psychologist, PhD
Infidelity has been an area we have been working with as long as we have worked with couples. We have been able to help partners navigate the betrayal and repair required to recover. This is true for polyamorous partners as well when there is a break of trust.
17 Years Experience
Online in Bakersfield, CA California
Bakersfield sits at the southern end of California's San Joaquin Valley and is shaped by its oil industry and agricultural economy — two sectors with distinct occupational cultures that affect how residents approach mental health and help-seeking. The city has a large and long-established Hispanic community, and bilingual Spanish-English therapists serve a critical access role for families where language barriers limit engagement with mainstream mental health services. Kern Medical provides institutional mental health resources alongside a relatively sparse private practice community — Bakersfield has fewer therapists per capita than comparable California cities, making telehealth an important access route. The city's conservative political culture and strong evangelical community mean faith-integrated approaches to therapy are in consistent demand.
