Bader presents strategies for managing infidelity crises in therapy, emphasizing direct engagement with conflict, addressing obsessive rumination constructively, and understanding the deeper meanings behind affairs. Using case examples, she highlights the importance of honesty, self-reflection, and confronting various types of lies to rebuild trust. Bader outlines therapeutic skills necessary for both partners—empowering the betrayed partner to find their voice, fostering self-esteem, and encouraging the betrayer to take accountability. She also addresses therapist neutrality, transparency, and navigating challenges like sexless marriages through honest and difficult conversations.
This workshop introduces a clear, experiential way to untangle difficult relationships by separating self, other, and observer positions. Through live demonstration and guided exploration, it shows how shifting physical orientation, language, and attention can dissolve emotional confusion, increase compassion, and restore clarity, helping clients decide how they want to relate, respond, or move forward.
