Dr. Chiara Simeone-DiFrancesco
Psychologist, PhD
I am a relationship specialist. Did you know that the outcome of the relationship does not hinge on whether there was an affair? Affairs can be overcome, but they need to be thoroughly understood, not only from the perspective of the unfaithful partner and their dynamics, but also seeing its effect on the betrayed partner, and any relationship dynamics that weaken the commitment system. Affairs cause betrayal trauma, and that trauma needs to be talked about, faced and healed for healthy reconnection to happen. This can happen and trust can be rebuilt, but please reach out for help soon before more damage happens by not knowing how to handle things. The outside relationship has to end before therapy can begin. If you are ambivalent, I offer "Directional Therapy", and this provides a process where you both seek clarity and confidence in your decision-making, rather than jumping into a commitment of psychotherapy. This is often quite helpful as a first stage.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Often, couples find an affair to be the most devastating. They often feel that there is no way they can recover. In the case of various forms of infidelity, you would be surprised by what can be overcome and how learning from it can actually build a stronger and healthier relationship. Our work will be focused on healing, building back trust and bolstering the trust with a stronger connection and sense of deep caring for each other. This doesn't have to be the end. It can be the beginning of a better and stronger love.
