Infidelity            

                 
    When you have an affair, whether it be ongoing, casual or with a prostitute
    the first concern is whether you are dealing with an addiction.  If this is true,
    immediate help is recommended.  Often the partner feels responsible and
    will think it is their fault because they should be able to satisfy you, or
    maybe they are not good looking enough or sexy enough.  It is important to
    alleviate these beliefs for yourself and for your partner ASAP.

    Another possibility is that they really are problems int he relationship that
    need to be addressed.  For example, one partner may feel misunderstood or
    ignored by the other.  There could be a lack of sexual  and emotional
    intimacy. This in  no way to blame the partner.  Loneliness may cause one of
    the individuals to look outside the relationship for comfort. One case of
    infidelity or cheating may lead to the other also having an affair as one
    partner seeks revenge.

    Sometimes a couple decides to stay together and other times the couple
    needs to end the relationship. They decide what to do. If the decision is to
    separate, I help them do so with integrity and leave them with the chance
    for a compassionate ending.

Dissolution
    Breakups can be the most painful experience of someone's life. For many,
    dissolution of a relationship is more painful than a death.

    Great care needs to be taken with people in this transition. The present
    culture often does not give a person the space to grieve for a long period
    of time.

    It may take many months to years to heal from breakups. They often create a
    major crisis in an individual's life.

    The ramifications of divorce or dissolution of Civil Unions cause extra
    stress, because they include many more legal problems.

    My greatest hope is to get both partners into a therapy process that will
    encourage completion and a amicable breakup.

Example of emotional infidelity in my San Francisco therapy practice
    I helped a woman who had an emotional, not physical, affair. This means she
    was sharing a level of intimacy with another that had never been expressed
    in her own relationship.

    This escalated to the point that both people put their primary relationships
    in jeopardy. Though the process was very painful, she was able to
    communicate with her partner.

    They started couples therapy and are currently working through issues that
    have not been spoken about in years.

    It enabled my client to grow rapidly in understanding of herself and express
    what she needs in her life.
