Therapy for Infidelity and Betrayal Recovery

Infidelity Recovery for Analytical Couples

Most infidelity therapy drowns analytical people in endless emotional processing. You need structured repair with clear phases and measurable progress.

This specialized track addresses:

Immediate safety establishment:
Transparency protocols, boundary agreements, crisis management for the betrayed partner's trauma responses.

Structured understanding:
What happened, when, and why—including how ADHD/autism contributed without removing responsibility.

Neurodivergence factors:

  • ADHD impulsivity and novelty-seeking

  • Emotional dysregulation seeking external soothing

  • Hyperfocus on new connection while neglecting primary relationship

  • Autistic literal interpretations of relationship agreements

  • Executive dysfunction enabling secretive patterns

Trust rebuilding architecture:
Measurable indicators of progress. How you'll know whether repair is actually occurring vs. performative change.

This is not:

  • Excusing behavior because of ADHD/autism

  • Quick forgiveness or bypassing trauma

  • Avoiding difficult conversations about what happened

Timeline: 20-30 sessions for genuine repair (infidelity recovery cannot be rushed)

Who This Works For

You're a good fit if:

✓ Both partners are analytical, pragmatic, or neurodivergent
✓ You want structured repair with clear phases and measurable outcomes
✓ You respond better to systems and frameworks than open-ended emotional exploration
✓ You're willing to invest in specialized expertise (not looking for cheapest option)
✓ You can handle direct feedback about what needs to change
✓ You're committed to actual change, not just complaining about your partner

This doesn't fit if:

✗ You want someone to validate your complaints and take sides
✗ You're looking for quick fixes or magic solutions
✗ You're unwilling to examine your own contribution to patterns
✗ Either partner is ambivalent about staying in the relationship
✗ You expect neurodivergence to excuse accountability
