Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LPCC, CSAT
Cynthia can assist you in resolving relational trauma. Relational trauma refers to emotional injury that occurs within the context of a close relationship, such as childhood trauma, abusive relationships, neglect, or betrayal. This trauma can cause lasting impacts on one’s ability to form healthy attachments and establish trust in future relationships. The effects of relational trauma may include:
Difficulty trusting others or feeling emotionally safe in relationships.
Low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy or worthlessness.
Fear of abandonment or rejection.
Emotional dysregulation, including mood swings or difficulty coping with stress.

Sara E Roth
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., IMFT-S, LPCC, EMDR Certified Therapist, EFT Trained Therapist
Oftentimes, couples expect that when they fall in love, they will sail off into the sunset. Sadly, that expectation will create significant difficult emotions when there are bumps in the road that they find they can’t navigate. Expectations breed disappointment and resentment.
The reality is that all relationships take work. The best of relationships need to be nurtured. Relationships that aren’t prioritized end up on the back burner, and then couples drift apart. When couples feel disconnected, often times either tensions escalate and hurt feelings create damage, or in some cases, infidelity.
Does any of this sound familiar?
So much can be done to repair a relationship. Your relationship and your happiness is worth it. Think of it as an investment in yourself, in your future, in your relationship.
Couples therapy will include discussing your goals and understanding the issues from both partners as they see it from their perspective. Skills related to understanding each other’s perspective, such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills is a priority. We will explore your communication skills, your conflict styles and conflict cycles to understand patterns, including using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns that trigger and escalate conflicts and hurt feelings.
You can reconnect with your partner and emerge with a stronger relationship.

Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Therapist, Betrayal Trauma Therapist & Coach, Sex & Porn Addiction Therapist & Coach. Visit my website 👇
Relationships can be deeply impacted by infidelity, betrayal, pornography, sex addiction, compulsive sexual behaviors, emotional disconnection, and loss of trust. I help couples navigate these difficult relationship challenges through confidential, compassionate, and nonjudgmental marriage and couples support
My work includes infidelity recovery, betrayal recovery, betrayal trauma, trust issues, intimacy problems, sexual relationship concerns, pornography use, porn addiction, sex addiction, and problematic or compulsive sexual behaviors. Whether you are trying to save your marriage after an affair, rebuild trust following betrayal, or address the impact of pornography or sexual compulsivity, A Safe Place To Share provides a structured space to understand what happened and determine how to move forward.
For couples affected by infidelity or betrayal, we can address anger, grief, anxiety, insecurity, shame, resentment, loss of trust, and the challenges of restoring emotional and physical intimacy. When porn addiction, sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior affects a relationship, both partners may need support, the partner struggling with the behavior may experience shame, secrecy, and guilt, while the betrayed partner may experience trauma, emotional distress, loss of safety, and difficulty trusting again.
Together, we can work toward rebuilding trust, improving communication, repairing emotional and physical intimacy, establishing healthy boundaries, understanding relationship patterns, and creating meaningful change. My goal is to help couples create relationships that are healthier, safer, more honest, and more connected.
If your marriage or relationship has been affected by an affair, infidelity, betrayal, pornography, sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior, A Safe Place To Share can help you understand the path forward and determine what healing and a healthier relationship can look like.
