Managing the Crisis of Infidelity
Copyright :
Helping couples navigate the aftermath of infidelity can be challenging work for even the most experienced therapists. It’s rife with anger, distrust, betrayal, guilt, shame, and deep emotional pain. In the face of these intense emotions, therapists need to quickly organize a deluge of conflicting information and narratives into a coherent plan for healing and reconnecting. In this practical and experiential workshop, you’ll learn:
- The three key stages of infidelity treatment and specific treatment goals of each
- How to explore the meaning of the infidelity in ways that can begin to move the couple toward recovery
- How to move partners past crisis to re-building their relationship
