Infidelity can feel like an emotional earthquake—shattering trust, triggering deep pain, and leaving both partners overwhelmed by anger, confusion, guilt, and grief. Whether you’re the one who was betrayed or the one who strayed, recovering from infidelity is possible—but it requires honesty, commitment, and skilled guidance.
As a therapist experienced in helping couples and individuals navigate infidelity, I offer a structured, compassionate space to unpack what happened, process the emotional impact, and determine the future of the relationship—whether that means rebuilding or moving on.
Whether the infidelity was physical, emotional, online, or ongoing—there is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. Together, we’ll find yours.
It’s possible to heal. It’s possible to grow. And it starts with facing the truth—together.
