Ms. Carol Jean Timmons
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
There are ways for couples to get over an affair! Therapy can help a couple explore the 'why' behind the affair, learn how to grieve the feelings of betrayal and loss, and recover from the trauma of the infidelity. Couple Therapy can then help the partners rebuild their marriage and restore lost trust so that the bond is deeper and stronger than ever before!

Rose Hanna Counseling Services
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
Discovering or navigating infidelity can shake the ground under a relationship. Using the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), we help couples work through betrayal, rebuild trust, and decide — together — what comes next, whether that's healing the relationship or finding a path forward separately.

Benedict Choi, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, EMDR, IFS Informed
Affairs are deeply life altering and one of, if not the most painful experiences a relationship can endure. The betrayal is in many ways a form of trauma that requires repairing and healing. From working with many couples that have experienced progress with this issue, two things are pivotal for recovery:
1. It's paramount that the injured partner is given the space to express how hurt, disappointed, angry, and in pain they are due to this event. Only until the injured partner "feels felt" (understood fully) will it be possible for them to reach back out to the partner that did the hurting to understand the meaning and why it happened.
2. I'm of the belief that while affairs are catastrophic and extremely difficult, it can also be the very thing that preserves the relationship, it serves as a door to look into what conditions were put in place that allowed for the affair to happen in the first place. This helps the relationship grow, redefine and creates opportunity for a second relationship if both people are committed to the work of repair and curiosity.

Scheyden Herold
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #137593, MS
In my work with couples, I don't believe infidelity is the final straw to end the relationship. The challenges that are presented with this issue are great, but I believe we can work to truly find out what is best for the both of you when it comes to managing this.

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Experiencing infidelity or betrayal can shatter trust, leave deep emotional wounds, and shake your sense of safety in relationships. In therapy, we provide a safe and compassionate space to process the pain, grief, anger, and confusion that often follow these experiences. Together, we explore the impact of betrayal on your identity, relationships, and emotional well-being, while developing tools for healing, boundary-setting, and rebuilding trust—whether in yourself, your partner, or future relationships. With Christ-centered guidance, clients are supported in finding hope, restoration, and the courage to move forward with emotional and spiritual resilience.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Infidelity can be one of the most painful and destabilizing experiences a couple can face. The discovery of an affair often brings intense emotions—shock, anger, sadness, guilt, confusion—and leaves both partners questioning what is real, what went wrong, and whether repair is possible.
I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate the emotional aftermath of infidelity with honesty, compassion, and structure. Therapy provides a safe space to slow down the chaos, understand the deeper dynamics that contributed to the rupture, and begin to rebuild a sense of safety and clarity.
For couples seeking reconciliation, our work may include establishing emotional transparency, rebuilding trust through consistent and verifiable actions, and learning new ways to communicate about pain and vulnerability without escalating conflict. For those uncertain about the future of their relationship, therapy can help clarify each partner’s needs and boundaries, and support respectful decision-making about next steps.
For individuals recovering from infidelity—whether betrayed or betraying—therapy focuses on understanding emotional patterns, rebuilding self-worth, and making sense of the experience in a way that fosters growth rather than lasting shame or resentment.
My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral and attachment-based strategies to address both the emotional and practical aspects of recovery. Together, we work toward healing, accountability, and—when possible—renewed trust and intimacy built on a stronger foundation than before.
