Affair Recovery
The unthinkable has happened: One of you has had an affair.
If you are the betrayed partner, you may suffer from symptoms including anxiety, hyper-vigilance, fear, anger and an emotional system in a state of alarm. If you are the one involved in the affair, you may experience shame, defensiveness, and guilt.
Your mutual courage to speak your truth, coupled with a commitment to therapy, will give your relationship a chance to recover. In couples where the affair is kept secret, 80 percent are divorced within five years. Conversely, when the infidelity is revealed and addressed, most couples remain married.
Infidelity doesn’t have to mean the end of your relationship. At The Couples College, we will support both of you on your journey to recovery. We can provide you with the tools to reestablish your equilibrium, restore mutual trust, and rebuild your relationship in ways that make it more robust and vital.
We are here to help!
