There is hope for your marriage after betrayal! In this episode Kristin interviews Stacey Smith, the Chief Clinical Officer of Daring Ventures. After sexual secrets are revealed, there must be a period of repair and amends where the betrayed partner's need for safety is the relational priority. But with humility, hard work, and deepening attunement over time, we can learn to build a new relationship rooted in secure attachment and better than it ever was before. You'll learn principles of secure functioning in marriage & how self protection sabotages connection with your spouse. Using principles of the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy, Stacey brings her expertise as both a CSAT & an APSATs trained clinician to this episode.
