There Is a Path Through This. It Does Not Have to Be the End.
Affair Recovery Intensives in Temecula, CA
If you are here, something has happened that has shaken the foundation of everything you thought you knew about your relationship. Maybe it just came to light. Maybe you have been carrying it for a while. Either way you are in one of the most painful places a couple can be.
And you are probably asking the question that brings most people to this page: is it possible to come back from this?
The answer, in my experience, is yes. Not always. Not without real work. But more often than most people believe when they are sitting in the worst of it.
I am here to help you find out what is possible for your relationship.
What You Are Feeling Right Now Is Normal
If you are the partner who was betrayed, you may be oscillating between wanting to fight for your relationship and wondering if you can ever trust again. Between loving your partner and feeling a grief so deep it surprises you. Between wanting answers and being terrified of what the answers might be.
If you are the partner who was unfaithful, you may be carrying an enormous weight of shame, guilt, and fear. Afraid that you have permanently destroyed something you deeply value. Unsure of how to show up in a way that helps rather than hurts. Desperate to repair what happened but unsure where to even begin.
Both of those experiences are valid. Both of those people need support. And both of those people deserve a space where they can be honest without fear of judgment. That is exactly what I provide.
Why an Intensive Is the Right First Step After Infidelity
Weekly therapy is valuable. But in the immediate aftermath of betrayal, waiting a week between sessions is often too long. The emotional intensity of this period requires more consistent, concentrated support than a fifty minute weekly session can provide.
The affair recovery intensive is designed specifically for this window. It gives you the focused, immersive experience you need right now, when the work matters most, without the weeks of waiting and the slow incremental pace that can feel unbearable when your relationship is in crisis.
What the Affair Recovery Intensive Includes
This is not a single session. This is a two week concentrated recovery experience designed to give you the support, structure, and guidance you need during the most critical period of healing.
Here is exactly what is included:
We begin with a four hour intensive. We start together as a couple so I can understand your dynamic and where you both are emotionally. Then I meet with each of you individually so each partner has private space to share honestly without the other in the room. We close the intensive with skill building and a clear roadmap for the two weeks ahead.
Then we follow up twice. Within two weeks of your intensive you and your partner return for two dedicated follow up couples sessions. These sessions protect the momentum you built in the intensive, address what has come up since, and continue moving you forward through the recovery process without leaving you alone to navigate the most difficult stretch.
Three experiences. Two weeks. A level of support that weekly therapy simply cannot offer in the same timeframe.
What We Work On Together
Affair recovery is not a single conversation. It is a layered process that requires moving through several distinct stages at a pace that is right for both of you.
During our work together we address understanding what happened and why, not to assign blame but because genuine recovery requires genuine understanding.
We work through the emotional aftermath for both partners. The grief, the anger, the shame, the fear. All of it needs space to be expressed and received before healing can begin.
We begin the process of rebuilding trust. Not by pretending the betrayal did not happen but by creating new experiences of safety and honesty that slowly replace the old fear.
We build a new foundation. One that is more honest, more aware, and ultimately stronger than what existed before.
This Is for You If…
You are committed to giving your relationship a real chance at recovery even if you are not yet sure it will survive.
You want focused, expert support right now rather than waiting weeks for incremental progress.
You are willing to do the hard work of being honest, both with your partner and with yourself.
You want a therapist who will hold space for both of you without taking sides or rushing the process.
You are ready to find out what is actually possible for your relationship.
A Note From Me
Affair recovery is some of the most sacred work I do. The couples who sit across from me in this process are in acute pain and they are also showing up anyway. That takes a level of courage that I do not take lightly.
I want to be honest with you about something: I cannot promise you that your relationship will survive this. What I can promise you is that with the right support, the right framework, and two people who are genuinely willing to do the work, recovery is possible far more often than most people believe.
I am trained in the Gottman Method and I bring that research backed approach to every affair recovery intensive I facilitate. You are not getting generic advice or empty reassurance. You are getting a structured, evidence based, deeply compassionate experience designed specifically for where you are right now.
If you are ready to find out what is possible, I am ready to help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions
