Partner Betrayal Trauma
I treat partners through a partner sensitive model, which focuses on you within the context of your partner’s compulsive sexual behaviors.
Through our work together, you'll be gently supported and learn how to heal from the impact of betrayal trauma.
I provide a safe place for you to process this painful experience while gaining knowledge and guidance for future challenges.
More About Partner Betrayal Trauma
“The Partner of a Sex Addict has responses that serve as reactions to a stressor or that is traumatic in nature, in predictable emotional, behavioral and physiological ways as her/his mind and body attempt to survive and adapt to a dangerous situation, seeking what cannot be found; safety in an unsafe situation.”
