Betrayal is not a random, accidental event that one just falls into. It’s often the result of unacknowledged and unresolved personal struggles, relational disconnection, or unmet emotional needs even from childhood. Common behaviors include:
Acknowledging these behaviors and understanding their root causes is the first step toward making meaningful changes. If you have not yet disclosed them to your partner, we can help you prepare for that.
You may feel:
Struggling to make sense of the hurt you’ve caused
Wondering how things went so wrong
Trrying that your relationship can’t recover and that you’ll lose friendships too
Trying to protect your partner from the hurt you’ve caused
Feeling distant from your partner, your family, and yourself
Our therapy provides a path toward self-awareness, accountability, and real change. We help you:
Explore the underlying issues that led to the betrayal
If you have not completely disclosed the extent of the betrayal, we can help you and your partner prepare for, and go through, a formal disclosure process that puts everything on the table, once and for all.
Learn to validate your partner’s hurt without defensiveness
Take concrete steps to repair the damage and show lasting change.
Address past trauma, patterns and behaviors to avoid repeating mistakes.
Can I rebuild trust after what I’ve done?
Yes, but it takes time, consistency, and a willingness to do the work. We often say, “Trust is built by reliable behavior over time.” One of the biggest gifts you can give your betrayed partner is to commit to doing the (counseling) work required to figure out how and why you betrayed them so that you know how to become a safe person for them moving forward.
How can therapy help me understand why this happened?
Our therapists guide you in exploring the deeper issues behind your actions so you can make meaningful changes. The beauty of working with one of our non-judgmental therapists is it offers you an open space to explore the deeper emotions, beliefs and even longings that were at play in making the choices you did.
Once a cheater, always a cheater! Is this true?
We certainly have worked with many individuals who have had serialized affairs! However, like any personal flaw, we have found that those who commit to therapy and to doing the deeper work to find the trauma and attachment wounds underlying these behaviors will eventually be able to bring themselves to their partner as a faithful, trustworthy person.
Our team of expert therapists specializes in betrayal recovery for both individuals and couples.
