Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Infidelity can really hurt people who are already dealing with addictions, relationship troubles, or feeling down. For example, finding out your partner cheated can make you feel even worse about yourself and really upset, which can make depression symptoms worse. As a therapist who focuses on these issues, I would create a safe space for people to talk about how they feel. I'd help them work through the complicated emotions that come with infidelity and figure out how to rebuild trust and move forward. This might mean setting boundaries in the relationship, talking about what led to the cheating, and finding healthy ways to deal with the hurt. I'd also help them think about what they want for the future and how to make choices that are good for them.

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.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I work with couples where infidelity has been an issue, helping them find a path to forgiveness and navigate the emotional aftereffects. I also work with individuals who want to sort out the emotional impact of infidelity. For individuals, even when forgiveness is not possible, therapy can help people overcome and understand the feelings it produces in order to emerge stronger.
