Infidelity counseling is couples therapy after cheating - whether that is emotional affair, porn addiction or a physical affair. Healing a marriage after an affair involves couples therapy where they betrayal is processed, trust is rebuilt and a new marriage can be formed. Even though painful, many couples do recover and build a strong relationship moving forward.

Chris Tickner
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
When one partner cheats, the other can be left in a world of confusion, terror, trauma, and anxiety. There are few things more difficult to overcome than infidelity. Sometimes it is the straw that breaks the camel's back. Other times it is the very thing that starts a process of healing and reunification. I work with couples every day who are trying to find their way back from betrayal. It is possible! It takes hard work though and dedication to the relationship. The person who cheated needs to do some very deep exploration of themselves to figure out why they strayed. They need to be to explain their behavior in a way that makes sense to their partner such that they can begin to forgive and trust again. This can take a long time. Couples therapy can really help to make this go much smoother and more quickly. Sometimes, out of the worst crisis, a new relationship emerges, one that is happier, more stable, more open, and more loving.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I work with individuals and couples dealing with the impact of infidelity, including situations where cheating is connected to sexual compulsivity or out of control sexual behavior. These experiences often bring intense emotions such as shock, anger, shame, grief, and confusion, and can leave both partners feeling unsure about what comes next.
In therapy, we focus on understanding what led to the infidelity and how compulsive sexual behavior may have played a role. This includes addressing patterns of secrecy, impulsivity, and emotional avoidance, while also helping the partner who was hurt process betrayal and regain a sense of stability and safety. I work with couples to slow the process down, create clearer boundaries, and begin rebuilding trust when repair is possible.
For some couples, therapy becomes a space to decide whether and how to continue the relationship. For others, it is about healing individually and establishing healthier patterns moving forward. My goal is to support honest accountability, emotional repair, and decision making that aligns with each person’s values and long term wellbeing.
