Benefits Of Healing from Infidelity
You don’t have to feel alone
A cheating partner can leave you feeling alone and without anyone to turn to, especially if you are not sure who you can trust or feel any shame. Taking the time to focus on yourself is the best gift you can give yourself and can help you decide who to reach out to during and after the program so you can find relationships to be safe and rewarding once again. The experts at Modern Intimacy can guide you through your betrayal trauma recovery, helping to validate and witness your pain and growth every step of the way.
Address all aspects of betrayal trauma
It’s hard to take stock of all of the insidious ways betrayal trauma can leave you wounded for years. This program is designed to help you proactively identify what you need to begin life anew, such as how to manage dysregulation and betrayal trauma symptoms, such as hypervigilance, avoidance, nightmares, etc., and feel safe and regulated again in your own skin.
Get your life back
To learn your partner has been unfaithful is to learn that your world is upside down and life, as you knew it, is never going to be the same. This surrealism of infidelity can leave people reeling for a long time, wondering why people cheat, and feeling disconnected, in shock, angry, insecure, confused, sick or ashamed. Investing in your recovery and focusing on healing from infidelity is the first step toward taking your power back and reclaiming the life you want and deserve
Learn to trust again
So many questions arise from betrayal. Why didn’t they just tell me they were unhappy? What if this, that or the other thing had been different? How could I have missed this? People go through great lengths to deceive their partner, including the use of gaslighting, when they are unfaithful. One of the most challenging aspects of healing from infidelity can often be learning to trust again, whether trusting yourself, the partner who betrayed you, or future partners.
Set boundaries
Whether you have chosen to stay in the relationship, leave, or have not made a decision yet, learning to set boundaries about what you share, and with whom, regarding your process of healing from infidelity is key for your betrayal trauma recovery. Also, how to evaluate trustworthiness in the future depends largely on the boundaries you establish and maintain in relationships moving forward, whether with the person who betrayed you or others in your life. Effective boundaries are necessary for self-care, mutuality, and healing from infidelity.
Re-establish confidence and self-worth
Healing from infidelity can wreak havoc on your self-esteem and confidence, but infidelity is never your fault. There are so many alternatives to solving relationship problems other than cheating, but people who have been betrayed often feel responsible, at fault, or inadequate. Healing from infidelity interrupts this narrative and puts blame back where it belongs, on the person who broke your trust, freeing you up to get back to the business of loving and respecting yourself
