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."

Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
I have worked with folks who have been impacted by infidelity on all sides, including those who have strayed, those who have felt betrayed, and the adult children who witnessed their parents' infidelity. I provide a judgement-free space where we can process what may have contributed to the infidelity, the fallout that it caused, and how to move forward. Whether in individual or couples therapy, we can make space to process your experience of infidelity and find healthy ways to move forward.

Discovering or disclosing infidelity can be one of the most painful experiences in a relationship. The feelings of betrayal, confusion, and loss can leave both partners unsure of how to move forward. In therapy, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space to help you process the hurt, rebuild trust, and decide what healing looks like for you—whether that means repairing the relationship or finding peace on your own path.

Peoria is a central Illinois city historically associated with the phrase 'Will it play in Peoria?'—a cultural benchmark for mainstream American taste—and home to major Caterpillar Inc. operations—the company that has shaped the city's industrial identity and workforce for generations. The city has faced significant challenges from deindustrialization and population decline, and OSF HealthCare's large integrated health system—including behavioral health services—is one of the most significant mental health resources for central Illinois. Bradley University contributes a student population and some counseling capacity, and a private therapy sector serves the professional and healthcare community. Common therapy concerns include economic anxiety tied to Caterpillar's global business cycles, depression and anxiety in a community navigating population and economic decline, industrial workforce stress, and the mental health challenges of mid-size Midwestern cities working to reimagine their futures.
