Betrayal. Cheating. Addiction. One of you has done it, and the other is deeply wounded by this discovery. You both are feeling panic, shame, and confusion. Your emotions are on a roller coaster – you feel more than you ever thought you could in such a brief period of time. You feel surprised by how wide your feelings swing. Shock. Denial. Grief. Rage. Love. Guilt. Desperation. Indecision. Contempt.
You have no idea where to even start..
You know that your options are down to getting help or a divorce. You desperately need a third party to sit down with you both, someone who does not know either of you…someone who is not biased, like the family and friends who just want to protect each of you. You thought that your relationship hit rough patches before, but this storm has shown you just how terrible things can get between you both. You are both drowning and you need support, but this crisis is too big to navigate on your own and has surpassed the resources you normally have to deal with relationship problems.
You don’t have to face this alone – at we are ready to guide and support you. John Thorington and Teresa Williams have years of experience.
The Restoring Hearts Process in Betrayal Trauma Therapy
Understanding addiction and healing relationships is our passion. Can you relate to the challenges life throws your way? Feeling trapped in the complexities of your life or relationships is something we understand all too well. We specialize in guiding individuals and couples through the maze of betrayal, trust issues, disconnection, and communication problems that can tear apart even the strongest bonds. It is natural to feel stressed or anxious when faced with these challenges, but take heart, because you’ve found a place where hope is born, and healing is possible.
We believe that life’s difficulties don’t define you; they are merely chapters in your journey. We exist to help you navigate these chapters, turning them into stories of growth, connection, and resilience. Our mission is to be your guiding light, providing the support you need to break free from the patterns that have held you back.
Why Choose Us?
What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to Jesus Christ and your wellbeing. We find joy in being his followers and pointing others to find the hope he alone can give. The words of Anne Lamont ring true, “Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: You don’t give up.”
Our Mission: Our mission is to change lives by helping men and women find their authentic selves in Jesus Christ.
Intensive Marriage Counseling
Healing Betrayal Together is focused on overcoming addictive behaviors and restoring relational dynamics and intimacy. Couples can be in the beginning stages of recovery and even question whether they want to stay together. They only need to be open to that possibility if they experience healing in their relationship. Real issues are addressed using recovery modalities, trauma informed treatment, and a systemic framework for ongoing growth and healing. Couples will also develop a growth plan that emphasizes each person focusing on his/her own growth.
We Offer Specialized Help:
Our Healing Betrayal Together intensive program can address your needs around a variety of topics including:
- Addiction
- Infidelity
- Communication
- Intimacy and sexual issues
- Disclosure
- Forgiveness and reconciliation
- Family healingand rebuilding
Most couples that attend are experiencing a significant amount of marital distress or have even begun the divorce process. If you find yourselves stuck in patterns and cycles of conflict, an intensive could be right for you.
Healing Betrayal Together Marriage Intensives Work Best For:
- Couples facing painful and persistent conflicts or challenges they have not been able to resolve through regular therapy.
- Partners looking for a structured, intensive approach to make substantial progress in a short time frame.
- Those willing to fully engage in the process and are committed to making positive changes in their relationship.
- Couples that will act on what they learn and develop in their experience and can implement the tools after the intensive experience.
- Couples that want to dive deep and intentionally over three days instead of over many months in therapy.
- Couples that want biblical answers for the struggles they are facing and have faith that God still works miracles.
This Marriage Intensive Is Not a Good Fit For:
- Couples who are not yet ready to address their issues or have already decided to end their marriage relationship.
- Those who are continuing in an affair or are unwilling to address and overcome their addiction with ongoing support and individual therapy.
- Couples who are not open to intensive, focused work or are seeking immediate, surface-level solutions rather than deep, systemic, and heart-felt change.
What Can You Expect from Healing Betrayal Together?
This unique couples’ intensive is a highly focused modality. What you can expect is to foster respect, affection, and closeness, beginning to rebuild trust when it has been damaged or lost. You will create a shift in your interactional positions and initiate new cycles of interaction to build and share a deeper connection with each other’s inner worlds. Keep conflict discussions calm and experience breakthroughs on gridlocked perpetual differences. Expand and re-organize key emotional responses and foster the creation of a secure bond between partners. We will also develop a plan to strengthen and maintain gains in your relationship that you will be able to implement once the intensive is complete.
