Therapy for Partners of Sex Addictions | Overcoming Betrayal Trauma
Interpersonal relationships shape our entire way of seeing the world, and none more so than our partner. So when you find out that your husband, wife, boyfriend, or girlfriend has a sex addiction, it can feel as though you’ve been hit by a bus.
- You may feel like sex addiction can’t be real.
- You may be scared, embarrassed, depressed, and angry.
- You may be living each day like you went through a trauma.
Sex addiction may sound like an excuse, and for some it may be. But sex addiction is also a real problem, studied by psychologists, that many people struggle with regularly that has been made worse by easy access to sex and sexual fulfilment.
We are a Calgary sex addiction treatment center that believes that the partners of those with sex addiction need and deserve just as much support throughout the recovery process. We empathize with the sheer amount of betrayal, confusion, disgust, fear, and sadness felt by the husbands and wives of those with sex addiction, and we strongly encourage you to seek out counselling before your own behaviors are altered as a result.
