To Healing
Repairing a relationship after betrayal can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re not sure where to begin.

This group offers a space to explore how to respond authentically to your partner’s pain, while also doing the deeper work on your own recovery.
Healing your relationship starts with healing yourself.
This is where that process begins, with guidance, accountability, and the support you need to move forward.

Why Group Therapy
This group offers a safe, guided space to explore your own emotions and learn how to show up more authentically in your relationship.
Recovery is a process. In this group, you’ll begin to uncover the deeper patterns and motivations behind your behavior. It’s not always easy to face, but understanding the “why” beneath your choices can be a powerful step toward real change.
Change doesn’t start with perfection. It starts with honesty, curiosity, and the courage to keep going.
Start Healing The Relationship
Imagine having a space where you can process your own emotions, explore what gets in the way of connection, and practice responses that help your partner feel safe again.
One of the most powerful parts of healing after betrayal is watching your relationship begin to flourish—not because the past is erased, but because it’s understood. When both partners feel seen and safe, something new can begin.
How The Group Works
Each group includes up to eight participants and meets once a week for 90 minutes. Sessions are led by one or two trained facilitators and focus on connection, emotional growth, and accountability. A six-month commitment is recommended to support meaningful progress.
If you’re looking for structured, therapist-led meetings for sex addicts focused on relational healing, this group offers exactly that.
The cost is $360 per month.
