Infidelity
Dr. Brandee Zettel
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC
Infidelity, emotional or physical, can be a traumatic betrayal that leaves deep wounds. I provide a structured, compassionate environment where both partners feel heard and supported. My approach includes:
Atonement: Navigating the immediate crisis, establishing transparency, and beginning the process of honest communication.
Attunement: Investigating the factors that led to the breach of trust and learning how to reconnect emotionally and spiritually.
Attachment: Building a "new" marriage on a foundation of deeper understanding, shared values, and reinforced commitment.

Infidelity
Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Infidelity shatters trust at its foundation. The shock, grief, and confusion that follow can leave both partners questioning everything - their history, their future, and even themselves. But betrayal does not have to be the end of the relationship; it can become the beginning of a more honest and emotionally connected one. My work in infidelity repair focuses on rebuilding safety and understanding through structure, empathy, and accountability. We start by addressing the immediate pain and disorientation, then move toward clarity - uncovering what led to the breach and what each partner needs to heal. This process is not about blame; it’s about repair, responsibility, and choice. For the hurt partner, therapy offers validation and a path toward self-trust. For the partner who strayed, it offers the chance to understand the emotional landscape that made the betrayal possible and to learn how to show remorse in a way that heals, not defends. Together, we create a new relational foundation - one that can hold honesty, eroticism, and emotional safety at once. Whether you ultimately stay together or part ways, the goal is the same: clarity, integrity, and repair. Sessions are available online through HIPAA-compliant Zoom across twelve licensed states, and in person at 220 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.

Virginia Beach and the surrounding Hampton Roads metro area have one of the highest concentrations of active-duty military personnel and veterans in the country, anchored by Naval Station Norfolk — the world's largest naval base — creating sustained demand for therapists who specialize in military trauma, PTSD, and the dynamics of military family life. Therapists experienced with moral injury, deployment-related adjustment, and service-to-civilian transition are well represented, and many practices specifically orient their care toward service members and their families. Sentara Healthcare and Bon Secours provide institutional mental health resources for the region, complemented by a growing private practice community. Virginia Beach's coastal environment and strong community ties give the city a relatively stable baseline, though the psychological weight of military life remains a defining feature of the local therapy landscape.
