Kevin and Monica have been married for 7 years with 2 small children. Kevin has seemed to become much more emotionally distant over the past few months. He is spending more time at work and less time with Monica and the kids. He seems much more preoccupied with his phone and is easily agitated with Monica when she demands his time and attention. Monica begins to wonder, is it me? Is it work stress?

Then the unimaginable question surfaces, is he having an affair? Monica has to disprove the latter thus it’s much too terrifying not to know the truth but just as terrifying to seek the truth. Monica searches and uncovers text messages, emails and phone records that confirms her suspicion and deepest fears….her husband is having an affair. What happens next will have a tremendous impact on the survival of Kevin and Monica’s marriage.

Through proper counseling, a couple can be guided through the critical first steps after the discovery of adultery or infidelity.

GROW Counseling has created an Affair Recovery Intensive that is best fit for couples struggling with a recent or past discovery of infidelity or an affair. The goals of the Affair Recovery Intensive is to provide a safe, supportive and structured environment for couples navigating the painful and volatile time immediately following the discovery of an affair. In addition, the couple will learn de-escalation skills, how to restore safety and navigate what to tell the children during this time. The couple will spend 8 hours over the course of 2 days with a specially trained marriage intensive therapist to begin the process of moving past the pain, hurt and anger.

If you are “Kevin OR Monica,” you can make the initial call. If you are confused about wanting your marriage or not, you can still make the initial call. If you have more questions about the process, fill out our online information form and we will give you a call. Intensive therapists at GROW Counseling know the first step in asking for help is usually the hardest and we are very sensitive to the emotional process.
