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.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Certified Gottman Therapist
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.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Infidelity is one of the most complicated things I've ever dealt with as a therapist. It taps into so many areas that we feel deeply about: trust, faith, betrayal, self-esteem, self-doubt, true love, soul-mates, reconciliation, forgiveness, PTSD, and even our future. The most common question that I hear people ask is, "Why did it happen?" Unfortunately, the answer is often very complicated and hearing the answer is often less than soothing. We want to know why, because, we believe, if we understand it, we can prevent the pain of it happening again in the future. That is difficult to do, so we have to look at our understanding of how control plays a part in our psyche.

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.
