Infidelity
Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Through the twenty year private practice career as a counselor, I have had a special interest in helping couples that were on the brink of divorce or separation. Many of them found themselves here due to infidelity. It is a special thing to help people to first understand infidelity; why it happens and what to do about it. Primarily, partners often feel that infidelity is their fault: that they did not do something well enough or that they are not attractive, pretty or handsome enough. That is the furthest thing from the truth. Infidelity most often happens due to sexual addiction, or due to the lack of feeling happy with one's self. When another shines their warm light of attention on you, and pays you lots of compliments, it can be very addictive to achieve that dopamine rush. There is also the element of the Coolidge effect. There is a biological thing that happens in animals. Males, (and to some extent females of the species) experience renewed sexual interest whenever a new partner is introduced.
This phenomenon comes about from an anecdote about Calvin Coolidge when he was President. The President and Mrs. Coolidge were being shown around an experimental government farm walking with two separate groups of reporters. When the first lady, whom was known to have a lot of moxie, came to the chicken yard she noticed that a rooster was mating very frequently. She asked the attendant how often that happened and was told, "Dozens of times each day." Mrs. Coolidge said, "Tell that to the President when he comes by." Upon being told this, President Coolidge asked, "Same hen every time?" The reply was, "Oh, no, Mr. President, a different hen every time." President: "Tell that to Mrs. Coolidge."

Angela Nguyen
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Infidelity ruptures the trust, safety, and connection in a relationship. Injuries and conflicts, being as painful and shocking as they are, are also opportunities for deeper intimacy when we put in the work to heal, repair, understand. I've helped a lot of couples better understand and re-build after emotional and physical affairs, and I can definitely be a supportive detective for your difficult situation too.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting individuals dealing with infidelity in their relationship or marriage, I provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental space for them to process their emotions and navigate the complexities of their situation. Through therapy, we explore the underlying factors contributing to the infidelity, such as communication issues, unmet needs, or underlying relationship problems. I offer strategies to cope with intense emotions such as anger, betrayal, or grief, and facilitate open and honest communication between partners. Additionally, we work on rebuilding trust, setting boundaries, and exploring the possibility of forgiveness and reconciliation if desired. My goal is to support individuals in making informed decisions about their relationship and ultimately finding healing and resolution, whether that involves rebuilding the relationship or moving forward separately.

Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Life Coach, Certified Betrayal Trauma & Sex/Porn Addiction Coach, Certified Trauma Healing Coach, IITAP, ADOH
Discovering an affair or infidelity can create intense emotional distress, confusion, anger, grief, and loss of trust. I specialize in infidelity recovery and helping betrayed partners process what has happened, establish healthy boundaries, rebuild self-trust, and gain clarity about their relationship and future. Support is also available for individuals working to understand and change patterns of infidelity.
I also provide individual affair and infidelity coaching for people who are currently involved in an affair and feel uncertain about how to move forward. If you are torn between your marriage or committed relationship and an affair relationship, individual support for infidelity offers a confidential, nonjudgmental space to slow down, sort through your emotions, and gain clarity about what you truly want.
Discernment for individuals engaged in affairs can help you explore the complex emotions, relationship needs, motivations, values, and consequences involved in an affair. Whether you are questioning your marriage, your affair relationship, or the future of both, A Safe Place To Share can help you make a thoughtful and informed decision rather than continuing to feel stuck between two relationships. The goal is not to judge or tell you what decision to make, but to help you develop greater clarity and determine how you want to move forward. Let me hold space for you.
