For couples experiencing the impact of sex addiction, there is a need for the partner to know the extent of the acting out behavior. This allows them the opportunity to make informed decisions about their future and the relationship. For those struggling with addiction, it is an opportunity to be accountable for the secrets they have often carried for a very long time.
We provide workshops specifically designed to prepare couples for the formal disclosure process , engage in the disclosure process with qualified support, and follow up with ongoing therapeutic care.
We believe that “Formal Disclosure” is a very nuanced process that requires a specific skill set unique to Certified Sex Addiction Therapists (CSATs). We aim to provide partners with relevant information while minimizing the trauma that often comes along with disclosure. We provide support before, during, and after the disclosure so that both the partner and the struggling addict experience some clarity and understanding of the extent of the behavior.
