Are you struggling with how to move forward after a major change in your life? Are you feeling alone, scared, or overwhelmed? Are you feeling stuck or disconnected in your relationships, unsure of how to feel connected again? I enjoy supporting individuals and couples navigate the expected and unexpected changes and transitions that inevitably come up in life, including healing from betrayal or infidelity, navigating divorce/relationship transitions, and coping with a diagnosis of cancer. Adjusting to uncertainties and changes in life can feel isolating and unsettling, but you do not have to do it alone, having support can help.

It's inevitable - couples will experience challenges in their relationship, and become overwhelmed by them. Like many of my clients, you may find you're emotionally distant, stuck in ongoing arguments, engaging in destructive language, hurt from acts of betrayal, or dealing with patterns of interactions that diminish love, security, and connection. The attempts to "fix it," or re-connect, are at times promising but don't last long. If you've found yourself in this place, struggling to find hope where it once existed, reaching out to a therapist can be intimidating because you're not sure if it will be worth it, or helpful.

I recognize the vulnerability, commitment and courage it takes to properly heal, and how intimidating it might feel to entrust an “outsider” with details of your life. Maybe you are experiencing anxiety and stress, or need to get over guilt and shame. Perhaps, you are a couple wanting to discover more deeply yourself and partner before marriage, or a couple in need of a “couples checkup,” to maintain a healthy relationship. Perhaps, you need help traversing infidelity, separation, divorce, custody issues, or other life transitions. We all need connection and at times, maybe just a little more support. When you're ready, let's talk.

Infidelity Therapists
How does therapy for infidelity work?
A skilled infidelity therapist will provide a safe space for clients to communicate their feelings and concerns. The goal is to be completely honest about what led to the cheating and how it has affected the entire family to prevent it from recurring in the future. The therapist will help the clients work on rebuilding mutual trust and respect and developing better communication and conflict-resolution skills. If the goal is to remain a couple, clients will learn the “danger signs” for their specific relationship, and they will make a renewed commitment to be faithful.
How long does therapy for infidelity take?
Recovery from infidelity can take time, and it can vary from person to person. Generally, a therapist will want to see the clients at least once a week for around six months. Then the sessions can be arranged as needed, depending on the clients’ individual needs. While therapy may end or shift to an as-needed basis, it can take up to two years or more for some clients to fully recover from infidelity.
How does therapy help the partner who was cheated on?
When a client discovers their partner’s infidelity, their trust in the relationship and in the life they had together may be shattered. They often experience mental health symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, grief, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). They don’t always want to stay in the relationship; they may feel ambivalent or may even want to leave. Therapy gives these clients a safe and healthy way to communicate all of their complicated emotions and concerns.
How does therapy help the partner who committed infidelity?
Infidelity often occurs when one or both partners’ emotional needs are not being met in the relationship. Therapy can help this client understand why they cheated and figure out how to address those unmet needs without resorting to infidelity in the future. This can lessen (but not entirely eliminate) the risk of repeated infidelity. Clients who cheat may also feel intense guilt about deceiving their partners, a sentiment that they can work through in therapy.
