Sometimes you don't really know what you have until you almost lose it. You might've told yourself that what your partner doesn't know won't hurt them. The truth is, everyone gets caught eventually and secrets can be painful. If you are struggling with the pain that you've caused yourself and someone else through infidelity, sexual addiction, or substance abuse it is not too late to get help. Most people don't recognize that they are struggling with addiction until they try to quit.
I specialize in working with men and women struggling with infidelity, sexual addiction and substance abuse. Most of my clients enter therapy with tremendous shame. My aim is to help you make real and lasting change in a setting that is free from judgment.
Deciding to get help may be the most important decision that you could make in therapy. Please know that there is a path through this and I can walk that path with you.
