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!

Infidelity can be deeply painful and destabilizing for both individuals and relationships. I work with individuals and couples to understand the context in which it occurred, including unmet needs, patterns, and relational dynamics.

Brett Ryan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #128956
Infidelity can be incredibly difficult. Often times the partner that was cheated on is dealing with issues of trust, fear, confusion, self doubt, and depression afterwards. The partner who cheated is often dealing with shame and confusion. I work with couples to heal from infidelity and improve their relationship moving forward

Infidelity
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Recovery from an affair can be a lengthy process. The infidelity can be used as a way to strengthen the relationship if both parties are fully committed to treatment. Taking responsibility for the hurt, along with healing from the trauma that has been created are critical components of the process. Learning how to communicate needs more effectively and reaching out to your partner when feeling vulnerable are critical parts.
