Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Infidelity can be one of the most painful and destabilizing experiences a couple can face. The discovery of an affair often brings intense emotions—shock, anger, sadness, guilt, confusion—and leaves both partners questioning what is real, what went wrong, and whether repair is possible.
I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate the emotional aftermath of infidelity with honesty, compassion, and structure. Therapy provides a safe space to slow down the chaos, understand the deeper dynamics that contributed to the rupture, and begin to rebuild a sense of safety and clarity.
For couples seeking reconciliation, our work may include establishing emotional transparency, rebuilding trust through consistent and verifiable actions, and learning new ways to communicate about pain and vulnerability without escalating conflict. For those uncertain about the future of their relationship, therapy can help clarify each partner’s needs and boundaries, and support respectful decision-making about next steps.
For individuals recovering from infidelity—whether betrayed or betraying—therapy focuses on understanding emotional patterns, rebuilding self-worth, and making sense of the experience in a way that fosters growth rather than lasting shame or resentment.
My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral and attachment-based strategies to address both the emotional and practical aspects of recovery. Together, we work toward healing, accountability, and—when possible—renewed trust and intimacy built on a stronger foundation than before.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for individuals and couples experiencing infidelity, betrayal trauma, relationship distress, trust breakdowns, and emotional pain related to affairs or relational rupture. Infidelity can deeply impact emotional safety, attachment, self-esteem, and overall relationship stability, often resulting in anxiety, grief, anger, depression, emotional dysregulation, and difficulty trusting again.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to infidelity and relationship recovery, helping clients process the emotional impact of betrayal while also addressing any underlying trauma, attachment wounds, or unresolved emotional patterns that may be contributing to relational difficulties. Therapy provides a safe, supportive, and structured environment to explore pain, rebuild emotional regulation, and work toward healing.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process betrayal trauma, reduce emotional distress, and restore a sense of stability and clarity. Treatment focuses on emotional healing, improved communication, and rebuilding trust in a thoughtful and intentional way.
Brad also works with couples and families when appropriate to support the repair process after infidelity or relational rupture. Relationship-focused therapy can help improve communication, establish healthy boundaries, clarify needs and expectations, and rebuild trust where possible. When all parties are engaged in the healing process, it can support greater emotional safety, accountability, and long-term relational stability.
Infidelity recovery is not simply about “moving on” or “getting over it.” It often requires deeper emotional work that addresses both the immediate betrayal trauma and the underlying relational dynamics that may have contributed to distress. Brad’s approach focuses on meaningful, lasting change rather than surface-level solutions.
Healing is possible. With the right support, individuals and couples can process betrayal, rebuild trust where appropriate, and move toward healthier communication, stronger emotional connection, and a more stable and fulfilling relationship moving forward.
