Help for Partners of sex addicts
Partners of sex addicts need an advocate to call upon. Feelings of fear, hurt, anger, betrayal, and grief require a compassionate effective response. We provide that expert guidance and direction. We offer help for partners of sex addicts to heal through sessions that get them answers to their many questions including: “How can I trust him again?” Partners or wives living with a sex addict typically report common feelings, such as aloneness, the sense that the partner can’t open up and tell you about his “real” self. The confusion comes as a result of doing certain behaviors that are still not enough and hopelessness that there isn’t enough. Anger from many unmet needs, as a person and as a woman, are often common. Many of these issues are addressed in the following books and DVDs.
Even if the addict stays in denial of their addiction, there is support and help for partners of sex addicts. The feelings of anger, loss, loneliness and many other feelings encountered over the years of living with this addiction will affect a person deeply. These feelings need to be dealt with therapeutically whether they stay married to the addict or not. We would be happy to discuss this more in detail during your counseling appointment.
As a partner or wife, the addiction comes from nothing you’re doing; the addiction started many years before you even met your addict. This addiction would have grown and damaged anyone they would have related to, in any relationship.
