Recovering Intimacy After Infidelity

Title of Event: Recovering Intimacy After Infidelity
 
Description of Event:
Infidelity can spin a relationship into crisis. This course introduces therapists to the complexities that infidelity has on not only the relationship in general and the trust, but also the sexual relationship. Even after a couple has put in the hard work to rebuild the emotional relationship and the trust, they are often stuck when it comes to rebuilding their sexual relationship. What do they do if one partner has little or no sex drive following an affair? What if their sexual relationship was never healthy in the first place? What if one partner is struggling with feeling attracted to the other partner now? 
 
Learning Objectives:
  • Participants will be able to describe 3 impacts that infidelity can have on a sexual relationship.
  • Participants will be able to demonstrate 3 clinical couples interventions to help couples navigate this challenging component of their recovery journey.
