The A’s to Your Q’s
What approaches are used?
Can trauma counselling help with trust issues after betrayal or affairs?
Yes. Healing from betrayal or infidelity involves more than just forgiving or moving on—it’s about rebuilding a sense of safety, confidence, and trust in yourself and others. Counselling can help you process what happened, understand your triggers, and begin to feel open and secure again in relationships.
If you notice that past experiences still affect how you show up in relationships—whether it’s difficulty trusting, reacting strongly to small things, or feeling stuck in painful patterns—trauma-focused counselling can help. You don’t need to have experienced something extreme to benefit. If your past continues to shape your present relationships, it’s worth exploring.
Absolutely. Many clients benefit from combining individual trauma work with couples counselling. This allows you to heal individually while also improving how you and your partner communicate, respond, and rebuild connection.
Can I combine this with couples counselling or other support?
