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.

Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in infidelity.
The aftermath of infidelity is rarely simple, whichever side of it you are on. If you were betrayed, you may be replaying details you wish you did not know, unable to decide whether to stay or go, or shaken by how much you no longer trust your own read on things. If you were the one who strayed, you may be trying to understand what you did and why, alongside shame that makes it hard to think clearly at all.
I work psychoanalytically, which means the question is not only what happened but what it meant. An affair usually has an unconscious logic worth understanding: something it expressed, protected against, or made possible. In sessions we take that up honestly, without a predetermined verdict about what you should do next.
If infidelity has upended your sense of your relationship or yourself, I would be glad to talk.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
There was a period of time in our country where partners were expected to stay with their spouse after an affair. It was considered deeply shameful to divorce. The tables seem to have turned, however, as we now live in a more autonomous and self-realizing culture; it’s often expected that the ‘victim’ of an affair will leave the unfaithful spouse in order to make a statement of self-respect. Now, if you stay with your partner after they’ve had an affair, you may feel ashamed and humiliated, as though you’re not strong enough to leave. You may even hear from well-meaning friends and family that “you deserve better.”
Although the therapists at PCT are by and large hopeless romantics, we are also realists. We are under no illusions that romantic partnerships are easy, but we also know affairs happen for a multitude of reasons. Many cases of infidelity can be mended, repaired, and used as a growth opportunity for the couple. We are here to walk this excruciating journey with you- we know where the guideposts are, we know what recovery looks like. Sometimes you will feel like you’re backsliding, but it’s only a product of healing. It’s a confusing and painful experience, but often, in the end, absolutely worth it. We are here to help.

The Caruso Wellness Center PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, MART, MA, ALMFT
Infidelity can be one of the most painful experiences a couple faces, often leaving behind deep feelings of betrayal, anger, shame, and uncertainty about the future. As an Adlerian couples therapist, I help partners understand not only what happened, but also the relationship dynamics that made healing so difficult. Whether your goal is to rebuild trust and reconnect or to gain clarity about the future of your relationship, I provide a structured, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where honest conversations can take place. Together, we work toward rebuilding accountability, forgiveness when appropriate, healthier communication, and a renewed foundation of mutual respect, cooperation, equality, intimacy and desire, and hope.
