A place to begin a difficult conversation

An affair can leave you with questions about what happened, what is still happening and what you want to do. You do not need to arrive with a shared decision about the future to begin discussing your concerns.

Make room for the impact, accountability and unanswered questions

We can focus on discussing the impact of an affair, clarifying present boundaries, communicating uncertainty and identifying practical next steps. We avoid assuming that one conversation can resolve everything or that reconciliation is the right outcome for every couple.
