• And because healing from infidelity is challenging, it behooves us to have a clear roadmap of the territory.
• In this workshop, we’ll go over an array of post-affair issues, including ways to deal with intense emotions, whether to discuss the details of the betrayal, how to begin rebuilding trust in the aftermath of the discovery, whether to have clinical ultimatums about ending affairs, how to handle setbacks, and how to deal with residual feelings for the affair partner.
• We’ll explore a step-by-step treatment plan and discuss how to tailor it to each couple’s unique needs.
• You’ll learn methods for overcoming the most common therapeutic impasses—hopelessness engendered by setbacks, debates about the value of discussing the affair, and ongoing dishonesty.
