Betrayed Partner’s Coaching Group
A group for individuals healing from betrayal trauma
Are you a victim of infidelity and betrayal?
If you have lost hope around healing your relationship due to your partner’s infidelity, relational or betrayal trauma, you have come to the right place. After a betrayal and discovery, everything can seem confusing and uncertain.
HCH offers a weekly group for individuals to focus on growth, strength, and relational recovery. We are here to help you heal from the impact of betrayal trauma on your relationship.
This ongoing group offers resources and support and teach you the tools and skills necessary in your journey. After betrayal, you may often feel scared and anxious about your future; what you once looked forward to with joy and anticipation becomes something you may dread with fear and despair.
After sexual betrayal, it can be difficult to rebuild trust and restore intimacy in a relationship.

Do You Relate?
- My partner just freezes when I try to share my pain, and then they don’t say anything at all.
- I feel like my partner doesn’t care about my pain.
- My partner gets so defensive when I express my hurt or anger.
- I don’t feel worthy or pretty enough anymore.
- My partner says they love me, but if they truly did, they would have never betrayed me.
- I don’t know if I can ever trust my partner ever again.
- I still feel like my partner is hiding things. They say they aren’t, but it is so hard to rebuild trust.
- When I am upset, my partner just gets angry and then only says things that they think I want to hear.
- I am afraid to do anything. I feel like I’m shutting down.
- I feel like society has judged us and I will never let go of this shame.
- My partner has no idea how to respond to my pain and I have no idea how approach intimacy, trust, and communication again.
- If I feel like I can never trust them again, what’s the point?
- When is it going to get better? I can’t do this dance much longer.
- Why doesn’t my partner understand that I feel like I need to ask them about things, even if I’ve already asked them. It’s my way of trying to learn and understand why. When I do ask, they don’t know how to reassure me.
- I just want them to truly be sorry, but sometimes their words don’t match their behavior.
- We both feel like we are walking on eggshells, and at any moment it’s going to fall apart.
- Anytime I see them, I don’t know if I can ever love them the same way again.
- My partner doesn’t know how to be empathetic or present for me.
- Why did they cheat? Why do they keep wanting to look at porn when they know it hurts me. They say they’re not doing anything really wrong if it’s just porn.
