It is possible to recover and repair your relationship after an affair. However, it is not easy. There are many volatile, painful, and confusing emotions that show up. Sometimes you respond in ways that don’t make much sense to you. Working with a therapist can be critical for repair and recovery.
As a therapist providing counseling services in San Diego, I have worked with many couples who have come face-to-face with infidelity within their relationships. In our work I will help you, both individually and as a couple, sort through and organize your thoughts and feelings. I will support you both in sharing those feelings with your partner in a way that you can be truly heard and understood. I will help you figure out together how you would like to move forward in your relationship. Rebuilding trust, processing through the pain, and strengthening the relationship in a way that can help prevent this from happening again, or ending the relationship as amicably as possible and processing through the painful issues are some of the many options we can explore.
The outcomes are different for each couple. However, clients often feel that taking the time to deal with this in therapy is beneficial in many ways. Contact me today to get started on rebuilding. You don’t have to manage this alone.

Grief and Loss - click for more informationEmotional upheaval often accompanies grief and loss. Whether it’s a sudden loss or something you were able to anticipate the effects can be emotionally devastating. In providing counseling services in San Diego I work with many clients who are suffering from the effects of loss. Readjusting to life without a loved one, after the loss of a long career, or the end of a relationship can be challenging. It often means having to redefine yourself in the face of whatever change you are going through. Having the support of a counselor can often make that process more manageable. Grief Counseling can offer support in coming to terms with the way life changes. Counseling can help you accept the things that feel out of your control.Sometimes, when we are grieving, we worry that our emotions might scare others away. We can then find ourselves not allowing our grief it’s full voice, but rather taking care of the emotions of those around us by shutting down our own. When you work with a therapist through your grief process you will find yourself in a compassionate, understanding environment where you can give voice to your grief and truly take care of yourself. With the help of a therapist you can grow through your grief, hold the memories that are special, and find ways to adjust to life in a new way.
