Starting to have sex again after an affair is often a major stumbling block for couples. Being intimate can trigger intense feelings of shame, anxiety, and sadness for both partners. But becoming more physically and emotionally intimate gives the couple a way to slowly work through these difficult feelings. In addition, by demonstrating patience, empathy, and kindness, the involved partner can play an active role in helping their injured partner heal and contribute to the affair recovery.
In today's episode, I talk with Jennifer Gingras, a Couples Therapist who specializes in helping couples navigate infidelity and survive infidelity.

Growing up with self-involved or emotionally immature parents can make childhood very hard. You may be well taken care of, have a stable home life, and get birthday parties, but still feel that something was really lacking in your childhood. If your parents are emotionally unable to really connect with you, then you may still grow up feeling emotionally empty.
In her landmark book Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, Dr. Lindsay Gibson explains how confusing it is for the child when their parent is so self-involved, that they can't really see, or respond to, the child's emotional needs.
We'll also talk about Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents and then carry that experience into their own marriages and with their own children. Dr. Gibson will talk about how you can recover from that experience to create happier and healthier relationships.
Please join us for this fascinating and important conversation.
