Now in a thoroughly revised second edition reflecting new clinical insights and key societal changes, this book presents a three-stage therapy approach for helping couples recover from infidelity. Clinicians learn empirically grounded strategies to guide both partners to process what happened and why, consider what needs to change in their relationship, and move on emotionally, whether or not they reconcile. The authors are leading couple therapists who share vivid clinical examples and skillfully designed exercises for use in and between sessions. Twenty-four reproducible client handouts and other tools can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8½“ x 11” size.
