Betrayal Trauma Group

Understanding and processing the impacts of infidelity and breach of trust

About Group

This group is designed exclusively for women seeking a safe, confidential, and supportive space to process the emotional impact of betrayal trauma. Betrayal trauma, often stemming from relational infidelity, deception, or profound trust violations, can shatter one’s sense of reality and security. Over eight weeks, we will move through a structured curriculum focused on understanding the nature of trauma, developing healthy processing strategies, and ultimately, moving toward deep, sustainable healing and self-reclamation. This is a journey of turning pain into power and rebuilding trust within the self.

By the end of this 8-week program, clients will be able to:

– Differentiate between relationship loss, general trauma, and betrayal trauma.
– Identify and understand their personal physiological and emotional trauma responses.
– Utilize concrete emotional regulation and grounding techniques to manage triggering events.

– Challenge self-blame and shame, and constructively reframe the betrayal narrative.
– Establish and communicate clear, healthy boundaries for future relationships and interactions.
– Develop a personalized, sustainable self-care and self-compassion plan for long-term healing.

Whether you’re feeling anxious, burned out, lonely, tired of pretending you’re okay, or just over it all, this group is a place to feel heard, supported, and understood (and maybe even have some fun along the way). We are excited to have you here, exactly as you are.
