Description
Description:
Infidelity is not necessarily about sex, but about secrets and the violation of trust. In this workshop, Dr. Spring will map out the trauma of an affair (or other intimate wounds) and help partners think through whether or not, and how to reconcile.
Educational Objectives:
- To describe how hurt and unfaithful partners react differently to an affair.
- To describe how these differences can be used to promote healing.
